Foreign Investors Pull Out ₹1.41 Trillion from India's Secondary Market in March Quarter

In a significant development, foreign investors withdrew a staggering ₹1.41 trillion from India's secondary market in the March quarter. Notably, HDFC Bank, the country's largest private sector bank, bore the brunt of this exodus, accounting for over a fourth of the total outflow.

The bank's fortunes took a hit due to the impact of the Iran war and the abrupt resignation of its part-time chairman. The turmoil surrounding HDFC Bank weighed heavily on investor sentiment, contributing to the significant outflow of foreign capital from the Indian markets.

The March quarter saw a massive withdrawal of foreign funds from the Indian secondary market, with HDFC Bank being the largest contributor to this trend.
