On 6 November 2025, data show that the gap between domestic institutional investors (including mutual funds and insurance companies) and foreign institutional investors in Indian equities has reached its widest in 25 years. Domestic players have steadily increased their shareholding amidst robust retail participation and supportive policy moves, while foreign funds decreased their exposure as global uncertainties rose. Analysts say this shift may reduce India’s vulnerability to external fund-flows and improve market stability over the long term.
