<p>From March through July, international investors continuously invested money into India prior to August. The Rs 8,394 crore amount also accounts for FPI investments and large-scale transactions in the main markets.</p>
<p>FPIs demonstrated their confidence in the Indian markets by investing more than Rs 40,000 crore each of the previous three months. In July, FPIs received a net inflow of Rs 46,618 crore, compared to Rs 47,148 crore in June and Rs 43,838 crore in May.</p>
<p>According to Shrikant Chauhan, head of equities research (retail) at Kotak Securities, big foreign investments in the Indian market are a result of the poor Chinese economy and global stock market, which might result in very volatile share prices in the local market. The global market has a significant impact on FPIs.</p>
<p>Foreign investors brought in Rs 8,000 crore to the Indian market between August 1 and August 18, but they also withdrew Rs 2,000 crore earlier this month. It took place after the credit rating agency Fitch Ratings lowered the USA’s credit rating from AAA to AA+ as a result of the country’s ongoing fiscal downturn and mounting debt.</p>
<p>According to Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director-Manager Research at Morningstar India, these investments by foreign portfolio investors in India would benefit the domestic markets. The June quarter’s profits exceeded expectations, which has opened up the stock market to additional international investors. Since August 2022, it was the largest monthly FPI inflow.</p>
