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 Oct 2026 (₹ crore) | Date | FII Buy | FII Sell | FII Net | DII Buy | DII Sell | DII Net | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2026-10-01 | 12260.26 | 21744.48 | -9484.22 | 25420.04 | 15378.2 | 10041.84 | | 2026-10-05 | 15674.61 | 20373.75 | -4699.14 | 20492.93 | 15311.31 | 5181.62 | | 2026-10-06 | 11258.72 | 14220.02 | -2961.3 | 20146.4 | 15057.48 | 5088.92 | | 2026-10-07 | 12577.96 | 18699.33 | -6121.37 | 18707.03 | 14110.46 | 4596.57 | | 2026-10-08 | 15725.45 | 28669.03 | -12943.58 | 22987.97 | 12284.86 | 10703.11 | | 2026-10-09 | 10373.99 | 13942.89 | -3568.9 | 15626.53 | 10883.27 | 4743.26 | | 2026-10-12 | 12583.21 | 14291.69 | -1708.48 | 15506.73 | 12461.71 | 3045.02 | | 2026-10-13 | 13465.39 | 14770.52 | -1305.13 | 16232.97 | 13793.73 | 2439.24 | | 2026-10-14 | 16381.85 | 18239.29 | -1857.44 | 17428.61 | 14758.17 | 2670.44 | | 2026-10-15 | 12735.59 | 18020.96 | -5285.37 | 19438.65 | 16119.26 | 3319.39 | | 2026-10-16 | 19951.59 | 18785.67 | 1165.92 | 17201.8 | 20863.08 | -3661.28 | | 2026-10-19 | 11240.64 | 12389.28 | -1148.64 | 14781.31 | 11580.12 | 3201.19 | | 2026-10-21 | 17003.9 | 15981.58 | 1022.32 | 14931.57 | 13317.25 | 1614.32 | | 2026-10-22 | 13627.54 | 17086.24 | -3458.7 | 16242.83 | 13351.51 | 2891.32 | | 2026-10-23 | 14445.54 | 13557.89 | 887.65 | 19232.31 | 15996.95 | 3235.36 | ### Monthly net flows, the 24-month ranking window (₹ crore) | Month | FII Net | DII Net | Combined | Sessions | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Oct 2026 | -51466.38 | 59110.32 | 7643.94 | 15 | | Sep 2026 | -44012.82 | 76030.29 | 32017.47 | 21 | | Aug 2026 | -7531.84 | 58268.15 | 50736.31 | 21 | | Jul 2026 | -5778.99 | 35099.25 | 29320.26 | 23 | | Jun 2026 | -49028.63 | 85800.14 | 36771.51 | 21 | | May 2026 | -55963.33 | 82668.93 | 26705.6 | 19 | | Apr 2026 | -70135.46 | 51063.87 | -19071.59 | 20 | | Mar 2026 | -122540.41 | 142960.37 | 20419.96 | 19 | | Feb 2026 | -6640.76 | 38423.11 | 31782.35 | 21 | | 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 | ### Sector-wise FPI: largest inflows Sector-wise foreign portfolio investment (FPI) figures come from fortnightly disclosures.
