FPIs pull ₹48,056 crore from Indian stocks in October

Foreign portfolio investors have withdrawn ₹48,056 crore from Indian equities so far in October, amid high crude oil prices, West Asia tensions, inflation worries and weak corporate earnings. Selling eased last week, with FPIs turning net buyers on two trading days. Total FPI outflows in 2026 have reached ₹3.08 lakh crore, well above the ₹1.66 lakh crore withdrawn in all of 2025.
