Stock Market Fall: After a long rise, Indian stock markets have been declining for the last few days. Nifty50, which had crossed the 26000 level, is now trading around 24000. The biggest reason for this decline in the market is the selling by FII i.e. institutional foreign investors. Actually, foreign investors have been selling in the stock market for the last several days and their sales figure has crossed 1 lakh crore. But, the most surprising and disturbing thing is that the share of foreign investors in NSE listed companies fell to 15.98 percent in October, which is the lowest in twelve years.

Foreign investors' assets in equities totaled Rs 71.08 lakh crore in October, down 8.8 per cent. This represents the sharpest decline since March 2020. However, in the meantime, the share of mutual funds has reached a record high of 9.58 per cent in October, up from 9.32 per cent a month earlier.

FII is selling, DII is buying

The value of mutual fund shares in October was Rs 42.36 lakh crore, while the value of shares owned by domestic institutional investors (DII) at the end of the September quarter was Rs 76.80 lakh crore. FII and mutual fund shares are calculated on the basis of the report released by NSDL. Although AUC data for DII for the month of October is not available at present, market experts expect that DII will now have a larger stake than FII. Market experts said that this is an important turning point for the Indian stock market.
