According to data from Trendlyne, the Government of Singapore is the largest FII in the Indian market, publicly owning 57 equities with a net worth of more than ₹197,571.7 crore. HDFC Bank is its largest equity holding.
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have dealt a serious blow to both the Indian rupee and the Indian stock market by being sellers in eight of the twelve months of 2025.
On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, FIIs have sold $18,285 million worth of Indian stocks, making this the worst year ever for foreign investment in Indian equity markets.
According to a Jefferies analysis, domestic stock markets have had their poorest relative performance in the emerging market region in almost thirty years thus far in 2025. The influence of FIIs in the Indian capital markets is demonstrated by the Indian rupee's decline to an all-time low of above 91 against the US dollar.
