Will FIIs remain excited by the Indian markets?
Monday, July 23, 2007
The month of July 2007 saw huge fund inflows from Foreign Institutional Investors, FIIs into the Indian markets. The inflow is to the tune of Rs 21,450 crore, which was equivalent to first 6 months figure for CY07.
However, Mutual Funds, MFs turned net sellers at Rs 900 crore in the market. So one can see that mutual funds have acted in the opposite direction of the FIIs.
If one sees the total inflow for the current year uptill now, FIIs have pumped in Rs 40,382 crore. Interestingly, in the year 2005 FIIs pumped in their best, which was Rs 47,000, according to the currency, which was listing in 2005.
The year still has 5 months to go, so one could expect to surpass the Rs 47,000 mark of 2005.
The month of July was 5x greater than the month of June with money inflow due to the DLF IPO and ICICI Bank FPO. In June FIIs were net buyers, at Rs 8381.40
