NEW DELHI: Foreign portfolio investments in Indian markets reached record levels in May 2025, as confirmed by National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) statistics, quoted by ANI.
The month recorded net FPI inflows of Rs 19,860 crore, establishing May as the strongest month for foreign investments in 2025.
The period from May 26 to May 30 saw foreign investors maintain their investment momentum with net inflows of Rs 6,024.77 crore. While positive inflows characterised most trading days that week, Friday registered a net outflow of Rs 1,758.23 crore.
Although May demonstrated robust performance, the cumulative FPI investment for 2025 remains negative. The period from January through May shows net outflows of Rs 92,491 crore. Nevertheless, the substantial May inflows suggest a possible shift in foreign investor confidence.
The uptick in FPI activity correlates with the declining US dollar value and positive developments in the Indian stock market .
