Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) turned net buyers in the Indian equity markets on June 15, 2026, recording an inflow of +₹200.05 Cr. This marks a significant shift after four consecutive sessions of net selling, initiating a one-day buying streak. Concurrently, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) continued their robust support, registering a net buying of +₹3,189.26 Cr. The combined institutional activity resulted in a substantial net cushion of +₹3,389.31 Cr for the market, indicating strong underlying demand.
FIIs Halt Selling Spree
The modest net inflow by FIIs on Monday, amounting to +₹200.05 Cr, breaks a recent trend of sustained outflows that had seen them offload significant positions. Prior to June 15, FIIs had been net sellers for four straight sessions, with outflows amounting to −₹1,082.18 Cr on June 12, −₹1,987.09 Cr on June 11, −₹2,124.98 Cr on June 10, and a substantial −₹4,566.03 Cr on June 9. The cumulative FII selling over these four sessions totaled −₹9,760.28 Cr. The +₹200.05 Cr inflow, while representing a small fraction of recent outflows, signals a potential shift in sentiment or a temporary pause in the selling pressure from foreign funds. This marks the first net buying day for FIIs in the past five trading sessions.
DIIs Maintain Consistent Inflows
Domestic Institutional Investors, encompassing mutual funds, insurance companies, and other local funds, have consistently provided strong buying support to the Indian markets. On June 15, DIIs recorded a net inflow of +₹3,189.26 Cr, extending their streak of positive contributions. Their unwavering buying activity has been a crucial counter-balance to the FII outflows observed in previous sessions. Over the past five trading days, DIIs have cumulatively infused substantial capital, with net buying figures of +₹5,341.29 Cr on June 12, +₹4,224.51 Cr on June 11, +₹3,123.95 Cr on June 10, and +₹6,159.48 Cr on June 9. This consistent domestic participation underscores sustained confidence in the Indian equity landscape.

While FIIs have shown volatility with a recent selling streak, DIIs have consistently absorbed selling pressure, contributing significantly to market stability. This dynamic interaction between foreign and domestic flows remains a key factor influencing market sentiment and direction. Market participants will closely monitor whether FIIs sustain their net buying in the upcoming sessions, or if the recent inflow proves to be a temporary aberration amidst broader global market dynamics.
