Institutional Tug-of-War: FIIs Dump ₹4,367 Crore as Rupee Hits Record Low
Domestic Institutions Absorb Selling Pressure Amid West Asia Volatility and "Marketweight" Downgrade

The Indian equity markets witnessed a sharp divergence in institutional activity on Friday, March 27, 2026. While Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) continued their aggressive exit from emerging markets, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) stepped in as the primary shock absorbers, preventing an even deeper collapse of the benchmark indices.
Despite the DII support, the heavy foreign sell-off contributed to a 2% crash in both the Nifty and Sensex, wiping out nearly ₹9 lakh crore in investor wealth in a single session.
