FPIS NET BUY EQUITY; BUT NET SELL DEBT IN JUNE 2025
For June 2025, FPIs were net sellers overall to the tune of ₹(7,563) Crore in Indian markets. This included ₹14,590 Crore of buying in equities; offset by ₹(22,153) Crore of selling in debt. The equity net buying had a strong IPO contribution. Ironically, debt selling was visible as the yield spreads started to narrow after the RBI cut rates by 50 bps. In June 2025, Sensex rallied +2.65%, Nifty 50 rallied by +3.10%, Nifty Mid-Cap surged +4.04%, and Nifty Small Cap closed +6.66% higher. In fact, the small cap index has rallied over 16% in last two months; a clear signal of retail risk-on returning to markets. The sharp rate cut and the CRR cut is likely to make equities more attractive in terms of valuations.
BENCHMARK BOND YIELDS EDGE UP IN JUNE 2025
The bond markets had already factored in a 50 bps rate cut and the 10-year benchmark yields fell to 6.18% after the policy statement. However, with the RBI policy changing its stance from accommodative to neutral, there was bottoming out of yields as the signals ruled out further rate cuts for now. Also, surplus liquidity would keep yields at the short end subdued. Towards the end of June, the current account deficit came in much lower than expected at 0.6% of GDP, which is positive for the INR. The rally in bond yields to 6.32% at close was more due to price fall as there was heavy selling of bonds by FPIs in June 2025.
