According to exchange data, DIIs were net buyers of equities worth ₹5,341.29 crore during the session, purchasing shares worth ₹18,877.03 crore and selling ₹13,535.74 crore.
In contrast, foreign institutional investors (FIIs/FPIs) remained net sellers, offloading equities worth ₹1,082.18 crore. FIIs bought shares worth ₹12,064.61 crore during the session but sold ₹13,146.79 crore.
The strong domestic inflows came as Indian equities witnessed broad-based buying, pushing the BSE Sensex up 1,695 points to 75,528, while the NSE Nifty climbed 461 points to 23,623, reclaiming the 23,600 mark. The rally marked one of the strongest single-day gains for the benchmark indices in recent sessions.
Market sentiment improved following reports of a potential US-Iran agreement, easing concerns over geopolitical tensions. Adding to the optimism, Brent crude prices slipped below $87 per barrel, providing relief to sectors sensitive to fuel costs.
The decline in crude prices triggered buying in downstream oil marketing companies, commercial vehicle manufacturers and commercial vehicle financiers, while upstream energy producers lagged.
While foreign investors continued to pare exposure, robust domestic institutional buying absorbed selling pressure and reinforced the market’s upward momentum.
