FII Flows and Institutional Activity
Institutional participation remains a critical narrative for the session. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) marked their fifth consecutive session of net selling, offloading ₹4699.14 crore in the last session. Conversely, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) provided a significant cushion, recording net inflows of ₹5181.62 crore. This divergence between FII outflows and DII support continues to be the defining characteristic of current market liquidity.
