Reacting to the inflow of funds in October, head of research at Samco Securities, Umesh Mehta said, “The worst seems to be behind us and markets have started to discount the forward looking Budget and revival of consumption.”
“The government’s efforts to revamp domestic demand by increasing DA, cutting corporate taxes, recapitalisation of PSU banks, strategic disinvestments have all contributed in changing FPIs’ stance,” he added.
Arun Mantri, technical and derivative analyst at Karvy Stock Broking, said that on the international front, “expectations of a US and China partial trade deal and expectations of positive outcome from Brexit negotiations have triggered a risk-on period.”
Regarding the future course of FPI flows, Harsh Jain, co-founder and COO, Groww, said, “The momentum is expected to continue in the long term as India is a very attractive investment destination with sound fundamentals. The markets are extending gains in the hopes of better quarterly results. Brexit deal, if successful, will bring more confidence to the global investors’ sentiments and help boost investment into India.”
