Foreign Portfolio Investors Return To Indian Equities

Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) invested ₹22,615 crore in Indian equities in February 2026, the highest monthly inflow in 17 months. The buying, driven by an interim India–U.S. trade deal, valuation correction and 14.7% Q3 FY26 earnings growth, follows three months of heavy selling and a net withdrawal of ₹1.66 lakh crore in 2025.
