Foreign investors have withdrawn Rs 44,166 crore from Indian equities so far in October, bringing the total outflows this year to more than Rs 3 lakh crore as elevated crude oil prices, a firmer US dollar and higher US bond yields weigh on investor sentiment.

Also, the artificial intelligence-led rally in North Asian markets attracts higher foreign capital.The latest outflows follow a net withdrawal of Rs 35,861 crore in September. Before this, foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) had invested Rs 20,200 crore in Indian equities in July and Rs 29,631 crore in August, data from the NSDL showed.

With the latest selling, FPI withdrawals from Indian equities in 2026 have reached Rs 3.04 lakh crore, significantly higher than the Rs 1.66 lakh crore recorded during the entire 2025, the data noted.
