--- title: "Stocks Mutual Funds Bought and Sold: March 2026 Portfolios" canonical: "https://tapetide.com/insight/reports/mutual-fund-buying/2026-03" last_updated: "2026-10-27" generated_at: "2026-10-27T06:00:22.388Z" --- # Stocks Mutual Funds Bought and Sold: March 2026 Portfolios Which stocks mutual funds bought and sold in March 2026 portfolios: by value and scheme count, cap split, new entries and exits. Not investment advice. Portfolios as of 31 Mar 2026, compared with 28 Feb 2026. Mutual funds disclose month-end portfolios within about ten days of month end, so this is the March 2026 disclosure, not today's trading. In the March 2026 portfolios (as of 31 Mar 2026), mutual funds added the most, by value, to HDFC Bank (₹11,107 Cr, 295 schemes added), Bharti Airtel (₹9,365 Cr, 244 schemes added) and ICICI Bank (₹5,365 Cr, 212 schemes added). The largest net reductions were in BPCL, MCX and IOC. Across the 1,287 stocks the 1,053 compared schemes held at either month end, holdings rose in 696, fell in 470 and were unchanged in 121, against February 2026. Shares added were worth ₹1,03,929 Cr and shares cut ₹17,558 Cr at the 30 Mar 2026 close, a net +₹86,370 Cr. Values cover the 1,275 of 1,287 stocks with a closing price that day. 10 stocks were held by none of the compared schemes at the end of February 2026 and by at least one at the end of March 2026; 8 went the other way. New listings and IPO allotments show up as new entries. This report describes changes in disclosed mutual fund portfolios. It is not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security; funds add and cut positions for many reasons, including inflows, redemptions and index changes.

Canonical page: https://tapetide.com/insight/reports/mutual-fund-buying/2026-03 - **Disclosure month:** March 2026 (portfolios as of 2026-03-31) - **Compared with:** February 2026 (portfolios as of 2026-02-28) - **Schemes compared:** 1053 - **Schemes disclosed this month:** 1071 - **Schemes without a previous portfolio:** 18 - **Arbitrage schemes excluded:** 38 - **Stocks held at either month end:** 1287 - **Holdings rose:** 696 - **Holdings fell:** 470 - **Unchanged:** 121 - **New entries:** 10 - **Full exits:** 8 - **Shares added (₹ Cr):** 103928.93 - **Shares cut (₹ Cr):** 17558.46 - **Net (₹ Cr):** 86370.47 - **Stocks with a price (values cover these):** 1275 of 1287 - **Price date:** 2026-03-30 - **Data complete on our side by:** 2026-10-27 Methodology: - Disclosure month: March 2026. Each fund's portfolio is its holding on 31 Mar 2026, published by the fund within about ten days of month end. It is compared with the 28 Feb 2026 portfolio. Data for this month was complete on our side by 27 Oct 2026. - Schemes compared: 1,053 of the 1,071 equity-holding schemes that disclosed this month; the other 18 had no February 2026 portfolio on record to compare with, so they are left out rather than counted as buying everything. 38 arbitrage schemes are excluded because their stock positions are hedged with futures and roll every month. One plan per scheme is counted. - Holdings are summed across the compared schemes for each stock. A stock is counted as bought when that total rose, sold when it fell and unchanged when it did not move. Listed shares, REITs and InvITs are included; ETF and fund units are not. - Value change is the net change in shares times the closing price on 30 Mar 2026, so a price move alone never counts as buying or selling. - Splits and bonuses between the two month ends are taken out of the share counts, so a split never reads as buying. When the funds' share counts do not match the filed ratio, the stock is left out (none this month). - Schemes adding counts schemes that raised their share count, including new positions; schemes cutting counts those that lowered it, including full exits. ### By market cap 100 large cap, 150 mid cap, 1,025 small cap and 12 unclassified stocks: 1,287 in all. Buckets rank stocks by full market cap on 30 Mar 2026: 1 to 100 large, 101 to 250 mid, 251 and below small.
