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 2026 (₹ crore) | Date | FII Buy | FII Sell | FII Net | DII Buy | DII Sell | DII Net | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2026-01-01 | 1067.64 | 4336.24 | -3268.6 | 13045.31 | 11519.42 | 1525.89 | | 2026-01-02 | 7850.45 | 7560.65 | 289.8 | 15349.56 | 14672.18 | 677.38 | | 2026-01-05 | 11277.44 | 11313.69 | -36.25 | 15565.79 | 13801.72 | 1764.07 | | 2026-01-06 | 15061.18 | 15168.81 | -107.63 | 17240.41 | 15491.06 | 1749.35 | | 2026-01-07 | 14663.53 | 16191.24 | -1527.71 | 18364.76 | 15475.44 | 2889.32 | | 2026-01-08 | 11090.27 | 14457.39 | -3367.12 | 18707.23 | 15006.06 | 3701.17 | | 2026-01-09 | 11093.29 | 14862.6 | -3769.31 | 18481.07 | 12885.23 | 5595.84 | | 2026-01-12 | 9071.61 | 12710.01 | -3638.4 | 16985.9 | 11146.58 | 5839.32 | | 2026-01-13 | 11994.92 | 13494.73 | -1499.81 | 15445.22 | 14263.44 | 1181.78 | | 2026-01-14 | 13121.23 | 17902.47 | -4781.24 | 19930.32 | 14713.04 | 5217.28 | | 2026-01-16 | 20159.84 | 24505.97 | -4346.13 | 19135.42 | 15200.11 | 3935.31 | | 2026-01-19 | 12379.75 | 15642.57 | -3262.82 | 17887.61 | 13653.31 | 4234.3 | | 2026-01-20 | 14215.11 | 17153.44 | -2938.33 | 18529.36 | 14863.67 | 3665.69 | | 2026-01-21 | 15370.98 | 17158.64 | -1787.66 | 17387.34 | 12866.87 | 4520.47 | | 2026-01-22 | 16873.2 | 19423 | -2549.8 | 17537.49 | 13314.51 | 4222.98 | | 2026-01-23 | 13550.25 | 17663.63 | -4113.38 | 18258.75 | 14156.19 | 4102.56 | | 2026-01-27 | 29666.67 | 32735.16 | -3068.49 | 23929.34 | 14929.63 | 8999.71 | | 2026-01-28 | 21044.5 | 20564.24 | 480.26 | 19578.39 | 16217.8 | 3360.59 | | 2026-01-29 | 20212.73 | 20606.7 | -393.97 | 24423.89 | 21785.13 | 2638.76 | | 2026-01-30 | 30492.98 | 28241.61 | 2251.37 | 18590.13 | 19191.16 | -601.03 | ### Monthly net flows, the 24-month ranking window (₹ crore) | Month | FII Net | DII Net | Combined | Sessions | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Jan 2026 | -41435.22 | 69220.74 | 27785.52 | 20 | | Dec 2025 | -34349.62 | 79619.91 | 45270.29 | 22 | | Nov 2025 | -17500.31 | 77083.78 | 59583.47 | 19 | | Oct 2025 | -2346.89 | 52794.02 | 50447.13 | 21 | | Sep 2025 | -35301.36 | 65343.59 | 30042.23 | 22 | | Aug 2025 | -46902.92 | 94828.55 | 47925.63 | 19 | | Jul 2025 | -47666.68 | 60939.16 | 13272.48 | 23 | | Jun 2025 | 7488.98 | 72673.91 | 80162.89 | 21 | | May 2025 | 11773.25 | 67642.34 | 79415.59 | 21 | | Apr 2025 | 2735.02 | 28228.45 | 30963.47 | 19 | | Mar 2025 | 2014.18 | 37585.68 | 39599.86 | 19 | | Feb 2025 | -58988.08 | 64853.19 | 5865.11 | 20 | | Jan 2025 | -87374.66 | 86591.8 | -782.86 | 23 | | Dec 2024 | -16982.48 | 34194.73 | 17212.25 | 21 | | Nov 2024 | -45974.12 | 44483.86 | -1490.26 | 19 | | Oct 2024 | -114445.89 | 107254.68 | -7191.21 | 22 | | Sep 2024 | 15423.32 | 31860.23 | 47283.55 | 21 | | Aug 2024 | -21368.51 | 48278.65 | 26910.14 | 21 | | Jul 2024 | 5407.83 | 23486.02 | 28893.85 | 22 | | Jun 2024 | 2037.56 | 28633.26 | 30670.82 | 19 | | May 2024 | -42214.2 | 55733 | 13518.8 | 22 | | Apr 2024 | -35692.1 | 44186.1 | 8494 | 20 | | Mar 2024 | 3314.3 | 56311.7 | 59626 | 19 | | Feb 2024 | -15962.7 | 25379.3 | 9416.6 | 21 | ### Sector-wise FPI: largest inflows Sector-wise foreign portfolio investment (FPI) figures come from fortnightly disclosures.
