Sell-off spree continues in FPIs; withdraw Rs 2,300-cr from equities in Feb

Foreign investors have turned cautious and pulled out Rs 2,313 crore from Indian equities so far this month ahead of the release of Federal Reserve's latest meeting minutes. However, the pace of selling has come down compared to January, when Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) took out Rs 28,852 crore. This was also the worst outflow in the last seven months, data with the depositories showed. Prior to that, they made a net investment of Rs 11,119 crore in December and Rs 36,238 crore in November. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said rising rates in the US might lead to more capital outflows from emerging markets including India. According to the data, FPIs withdrew a net amount of Rs 2,313 crore from Indian equities during February 1-24.

Nine of the 10 most valued firms faced a combined erosion of Rs 1,87,808.26 crore in market valuation last week, with HDFC Bank and Reliance Industries taking the biggest hit amid an overall weak trend in equities. Last week, the BSE benchmark tumbled 1,538.64 points or 2.52 per cent amid concerns that the US Federal Reserve might raise interest rates further to curb inflation. Fresh foreign fund outflows also dented investor sentiments. Barring ITC, all 10 firms, including Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Infosys, ICICI Bank and Hindustan Unilever, were the laggards. HDFC Bank's valuation declined by Rs 37,848.16 crore to Rs 8,86,070.99 crore at close on Friday. The market valuation of Reliance Industries fell by Rs 36,567.46 crore to Rs 16,14,109.66 crore.
