Can FII Buying Drive Nifty Toward 27,000 in Coming Weeks?
About the Recent FII and DII Activity
After a prolonged phase of selling through late September, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have reversed course and turned strong net buyers in the first week of October. This shift, supported by continuous domestic institutional investor (DII) inflows, has helped Nifty stabilize above the 25,000 mark.
According to exchange data, FIIs bought equities worth ₹1,308 crore on October 9, following earlier net purchases of ₹1,440 crore and ₹81 crore on October 7 and 8 respectively. This marks a notable change from the heavy selling streak seen in late September when FII outflows exceeded ₹5,000 crore on multiple days.
