AHMEDABAD: Investment in foreign financial institutions has more than doubled to close to Rs 20 lakh crore by the end of September 2021 in the wake of the Corona epidemic in March 2020 and the historic boom seen after the announcement of the lockdown.

When the Sensex reached close to 5,000 at the time of the announcement of the lockdown in March 2020, the total market capitalization of all the companies listed on the BSE had reached Rs 101 lakh crore.

Accordingly, foreign funds accounted for a total of 30.5 per cent and domestic funds accounted for 4.5 per cent of the Indian stock market. At the end of September 2021, the market capitalization of the Indian stock market had risen to Rs 4.5 lakh crore.

Depending on the assets of foreign funds, they currently hold 12 per cent stake and domestic funds hold 4.5 per cent.
