Foreign investors return to Indian equities with August FPI inflows topping $3.2 billion
AI Market Summary
August saw strong foreign portfolio inflows into Indian equities (over $3.2bn), extending into early September, led by Consumer Services, Financials and Healthcare. HSBC highlights a positioning catalyst: many active EM funds remain underweight India, implying meaningful reallocation potential if they revert to neutral. Supportive macro (7.8% GDP growth), better earnings and a steadier rupee offset the main risk of higher global bond yields.

Foreign investors returned to Indian equities in August, with net FPI inflows exceeding $3.2 billion, the strongest monthly inflow since September 2024, led by Consumer Services, Financials and Healthcare. HSBC estimates that if global funds move back to a neutral allocation, as much as $25 billion could flow into India. Supportive factors include Q1 GDP growth of 7.8%, better-than-expected corporate earnings and a stable rupee, which could help sustain foreign inflows.
