India is cheaper. Why are foreign investors still selling?
A quarterly results development with market-wide reach.
6 Oct 2026 · LiveMint Markets
FPIs invested ₹55,524 crore through the primary market despite heavy secondary-market selling. Lower valuations have yet to offset concerns over earnings and dollar returns.
The analysis
Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
