Foreign investors have pulled out over ₹23,710 crore from the Indian equity markets so far this month, pushing total outflows past ₹1 lakh crore in 2025 amid rising global trade tensions.
Going forward, V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, believes that revival of FPI investment in India will happen when economic growth and corporate earnings revive. Indications of that are likely to happen in two to three months.
According to the data with the depositories, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) offloaded shares worth ₹23,710 crore from Indian equities so far this month (till February 21). This came following a net outflow of ₹78,027 crore in January. With these, the total outflow by FPIs has reached ₹1,01,737 crore in 2025 so far, data with the depositories showed.
This massive selling has resulted in the Nifty yielding negative returns of 4 per cent year-to-date.
