DIIs Set New Record: ₹5.3 Lakh Crore Equity Purchases in 2025

Synopsis:


Domestic institutional investors have net bought equities worth ₹5.3 lakh crore in 2025 so far, surpassing 2024’s peak. Mutual fund inflows and SIPs remain strong, though Indian benchmarks continue to trail global peers due to valuations, earnings momentum, and lighter foreign flows.

DIIs Set New Record With ₹5.3 Lakh Crore Equity Purchases In 2025

Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) have set a new milestone in Indian equities this year. Net purchases so far stand at ₹5.3 lakh crore, already ahead of the ₹5.22 lakh crore recorded in 2024.

According to AMFI data reported by Financial Express and Mint, equity mutual fund inflows hit a record ₹42,702 crore in July 2025. August saw a pullback to ₹33,430 crore, a 22% decline, but still one of the strongest months historically.

Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) remained consistent, with Economic Times reporting ₹28,464 crore in July SIP flows, well above the ₹15,000–18,000 crore monthly averages in 2024. Industry assets under management climbed to ₹75.36 lakh crore in July, before easing slightly to ₹75.18 lakh crore in August.

Market Context 

The moderation in August reflected portfolio rebalancing after July’s record. Profit-taking in small-cap and thematic funds, alongside festive spending and real estate demand, diverted some flows.

Even so, Economic Times noted that domestic inflows continue to cushion the market against persistent FII selling. However, Indian benchmarks have delivered modest gains compared with global peers due to valuation and earnings pressures.

Domestic Drivers

  1. SIP discipline – Households maintain monthly contributions, anchoring mutual fund inflows.

  2. Lack of alternatives – Lower real returns on deposits and bonds keep equities relevant.

  3. Profit rotation – Some investors shift gains into real estate or consumption.

  4. Retail expansion – Folio growth shows households embedding equity MFs in savings.

Context & Drivers

Sensex

+5%

Gains look slightly better in rupee terms, but valuations and earnings still kept upside limited.

Nifty

+7%

Outperformed Sensex modestly; steady domestic inflows helped, though global benchmarks raced ahead.

Shanghai Composite (China)

+14%

Stimulus-led rebound, but INR conversion trims the edge versus USD terms.

Hang Seng (Hong Kong)

+17%

Tech and financial majors pushed higher; remains strong even after currency adjustment.

DAX (Germany)

+33%

Earnings growth in exporters and easing energy risks drove gains; INR impact marginal.

CAC 40 (France)

+18%

Luxury and industrial stocks supported performance; INR adjustment narrows gap slightly.

This comparison highlights the divergence: while Indian markets remain supported by domestic savings, global peers are gaining from stronger earnings cycles, lower valuations, and higher foreign inflows.

Conclusion

July’s record inflows underline the growing strength of domestic savings. SIPs remain the backbone of this momentum, while August’s moderation reflected profit-taking and household spending rather than weakness.

Global peers, however, have delivered stronger returns, shaped by different dynamics — valuation discounts, stronger earnings growth, and heavier foreign inflows. This underlines the evolving balance: India’s markets are increasingly driven by domestic participation, even as international capital continues to move selectively across regions.
