Foreign outflows of $3.1 bln from Indian financials drive record monthly sales in October, data shows
By Bharath Rajeswaran
Nov 7 (Reuters) -Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) pulled out about $3.1 billion from Indian financial stocks in October, the second-highest amount ever from the sector and accounting for 30% of the record overall withdrawal for the month, data showed on Thursday.
The 260.42 billion-rupee selloff in financials - the heaviest weighted index on the benchmark NSE Nifty 50 .NSEI - contributed to the record monthly outflows of $11.2 billion.
This triggered a 6% drop in the Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex .BSESN, their worst monthly decline since March 2020.
A slowdown in loan growth, driven by the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI)clampdown on "exuberance" in retail lending and moderation in thenet interest margins of several banks in the September quarter resulted inFPI selling in the sector, according to analysts.
"We expect a re-balancing between India and China from foreign investors to continue in the short term," said Vineet Agrawal, co-founder of fixed income investment platform Jiraaf.
Foreign investors sold Indian stocks in every session last month as funds were redirected to China afterBeijing's stimulus measures and relatively cheaper stockvaluations.
Eighteen of the 24 sectors sawoutflows in October, with significant selling by FPIs in oil and gas, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), auto, and consumer services.
Weaker earnings further fuelled foreign selling. The auto .NIFTYAUTO and oil & gas .NIFOILGAS sectors both shedaround 13% in October, while consumer stocks .NIFTYFMCG declined approximately 10%.
Although FPI outflows triggered a market sell-off in October, analysts view this as temporary and expect domestic inflows to counter the slide caused by foreign selling.
"Even with moderating earnings, sustained inflows from retail and mutual fund investors would cushion the markets," Jiraaf'sAgrawal said.
