Foreign portfolio investors withdraw Rs 4,800 crore from Indian equities amid global uncertainty

Foreign portfolio investors reversed May’s inflows, withdrawing Rs 4,84.32 crore this week, driven by global bond market turmoil. Despite initial positive inflows, a significant sell-off occurred mid-week, contributing to a net outflow of Rs 98,516 crore from Indian equities in 2025. Experts attribute this to external factors and options market dynamics, rather than fundamental weaknesses in the Indian economy.
