Foreign Investors Withdraw Rs 32,000 Crore from Indian Equities in May

FPI profile: Foreign investors continue selling spree in May, pull out Rs 32,000 crore

Foreign portfolio investors continued their exit from Indian equities in May, withdrawing Rs 32,963 crore due to concerns over earnings growth and a weakening rupee. This outflow has pushed cumulative FPI withdrawals in 2026 to Rs 2.25 lakh crore, surpassing the entire previous year's figure. While selling intensity has eased, a turnaround in flows is unlikely without significant macroeconomic improvement.
