During the fourth quarter, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) notably increased their stakes in several prominent Indian large-cap companies such as State Bank of India (SBI), Groww, Power Grid Corporation of India, and NTPC. This trend stands out as overall foreign investment saw outflows from the Indian market in Q4. The increased FII holdings in these companies reflect selective investor confidence in specific sectors and firms, even amid broader market challenges. These companies are key players in banking, financial services, power transmission, and energy generation sectors, which continue to attract foreign investment interest. FII holdings rose sharply in key large-cap names such as State Bank of India, Power Grid Corporation of India, NTPC, and others in Q4 despite overall foreign outflows.
