Monthly totals are the sum of the daily figures; a net-buy or net-sell day is a session with a positive or negative net. - A streak counts consecutive trading sessions in the month with the same net direction. Holidays do not break a streak. - The rank compares this month with every month in the trailing 24-month window shown in the history table. A month still in progress is ranked on its sessions so far. - Sector-wise FPI net investment is reported fortnightly and covers equity, debt and hybrid investment, so it does not reconcile with the daily cash-market figures. ### Every session in Jan 2019 (₹ crore) | Date | FII Buy | FII Sell | FII Net | DII Buy | DII Sell | DII Net | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2019-01-01 | 1665.4 | 1713.6 | -48.2 | 1591.3 | 1448.7 | 142.6 | | 2019-01-02 | 2573.6 | 3194.6 | -621.1 | 3075.1 | 3301.2 | -226.2 | | 2019-01-03 | 3941.5 | 4914.3 | -972.8 | 2835.6 | 2801.1 | 34.5 | | 2019-01-04 | 3130.6 | 3288.3 | -157.7 | 2843.6 | 2603 | 240.6 | | 2019-01-07 | 4252.2 | 3516 | 736.2 | 2492.8 | 2634.8 | -142 | | 2019-01-08 | 3437.4 | 3991.2 | -553.8 | 3343.6 | 2645.5 | 698.2 | | 2019-01-09 | 4410.4 | 4134.3 | 276.1 | 3658.9 | 3219.2 | 439.7 | | 2019-01-10 | 4018.5 | 4363.1 | -344.6 | 3390.9 | 3379.9 | 11 | | 2019-01-11 | 3195.1 | 3882.3 | -687.2 | 3810.2 | 3687 | 123.2 | | 2019-01-14 | 3222.7 | 3955.2 | -732.5 | 3297.2 | 2769.7 | 527.5 | | 2019-01-15 | 4248.7 | 4089.1 | 159.6 | 3712.9 | 3295.5 | 417.4 | | 2019-01-16 | 3864.3 | 3954.4 | -90.1 | 3035 | 2730.7 | 304.3 | | 2019-01-17 | 4295.5 | 3453.4 | 842.1 | 2510.1 | 3237.6 | -727.5 | | 2019-01-18 | 3458.1 | 3583 | -124.9 | 3281.8 | 3282.7 | -1 | | 2019-01-21 | 3646.7 | 3946.5 | -299.8 | 3316.7 | 2795.9 | 520.8 | | 2019-01-22 | 5308.2 | 5386.7 | -78.5 | 3342.4 | 3426.6 | -84.2 | | 2019-01-23 | 3787.9 | 4563.7 | -775.8 | 3222.2 | 2638.4 | 583.8 | | 2019-01-24 | 4121.3 | 4215.7 | -94.4 | 2812.6 | 2422.6 | 390 | | 2019-01-25 | 5042.4 | 4353.1 | 689.3 | 3118.7 | 3266 | -147.4 | | 2019-01-28 | 6678.5 | 6455.1 | 223.4 | 3717.3 | 3624.9 | 92.3 | | 2019-01-29 | 5958.4 | 6312.7 | -354.4 | 3740.8 | 3659.5 | 81.3 | | 2019-01-30 | 6581.9 | 6451.6 | 130.2 | 4715.4 | 4213.1 | 502.3 | | 2019-01-31 | 10962 | 7955.6 | 3006.4 | 5751.4 | 7385.7 | -1634.3 | ### Monthly net flows, the 24-month ranking window (₹ crore) | Month | FII Net | DII Net | Combined | Sessions | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Jan 2019 | 127.5 | 2146.9 | 2274.4 | 23 | | Dec 2018 | -1103.5 | 375.6 | -727.9 | 20 | | Nov 2018 | 4934.1 | 1309.5 | 6243.6 | 19 | | Oct 2018 | -29201 | 26033.9 | -3167.1 | 21 | | Sep 2018 | -9468.7 | 12503.9 | 3035.2 | 18 | | Aug 2018 | -2228.7 | 2822.7 | 594 | 21 | | Jul 2018 | -2768.7 | 3845.8 | 1077.1 | 21 | | Jun 2018 | -10249.1 | 14146 | 3896.9 | 21 | | May 2018 | -12359.5 | 15054.5 | 2695 | 22 | | Apr 2018 | -9620.5 | 8663.9 | -956.6 | 20 | | Mar 2018 | 7904.6 | 6694.1 | 14598.7 | 19 | | Feb 2018 | -18619.2 | 17812.8 | -806.4 | 19 | | Jan 2018 | 9567.8 | 398.5 | 9966.3 | 22 | | Dec 2017 | -6411.5 | 8142.8 | 1731.3 | 20 | | Nov 2017 | -13514.9 | 9243.1 | -4271.8 | 22 | | Oct 2017 | -7826.4 | 10090.9 | 2264.5 | 20 | | Sep 2017 | -23969.8 | 21025.7 | -2944.1 | 21 | | Aug 2017 | -15995.4 | 16205.2 | 209.8 | 21 | | Jul 2017 | 1464.7 | 4786.6 | 6251.3 | 21 | | Jun 2017 | -4051.3 | 6675.9 | 2624.6 | 20 | | May 2017 | -452.5 | 4277.1 | 3824.6 | 22 | | Apr 2017 | -6627.6 | 9247.5 | 2619.9 | 18 | | Mar 2017 | 26473.2 | -4395.7 | 22077.5 | 22 | | Feb 2017 | 8704.1 | 935.2 | 9639.3 | 19 | ### Sector-wise FPI: largest inflows Sector-wise foreign portfolio investment (FPI) figures come from fortnightly disclosures.
