FII Activity Today: Reading Foreign Institutional Flows

This page tracks what Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) did today across the cash market and derivatives — net buying or selling in equities, plus positioning in index futures, index options, stock futures and stock options. Daily flow data is published by the exchanges and updated here as provisional figures after market close, then finalised the next day.

Cash Market vs Derivatives: Two Different Signals

FII cash-market flows show actual buying or selling of shares — the cleanest read on foreign money entering or leaving Indian equities. Derivatives positioning (futures and options) mixes directional bets with hedging, so a large short position does not automatically mean FIIs are bearish: it may hedge a large cash portfolio. Read the two together, never in isolation.

What This Page Shows

  • Net FII cash buying/selling for the day (provisional after 3:30 PM IST, final next morning)
  • Index futures and index options net positions and day change
  • Stock futures and stock options activity
  • Multi-day cumulative flows to separate one-day noise from a sustained trend
  • Historical daily data for backtesting flow patterns

How to Read FII Flow Data

  1. Check the cash-market net figure first — it is the most direct signal of foreign conviction.
  2. Compare today's figure with the 5-day and 20-day cumulative trend before concluding anything.
  3. Cross-check derivatives positioning: shorts alongside cash buying often indicate hedging, not bearishness.
  4. Confirm whether figures are provisional or final — provisional numbers can be revised.

Common Misreadings to Avoid

  • Daily FII flow data is aggregate — it does not tell you which stocks FIIs bought or sold. Stock-level FII changes come from quarterly shareholding filings, a different dataset.
  • One day of selling means little; institutional trends play out over weeks.
  • FII derivatives shorts before events (budget, elections, Fed meetings) are frequently protective hedges.
  • Bulk/block deal disclosures are separate from aggregate daily flows — don't double-count.

Frequently Asked Questions

Provisional cash-market figures are published after market close (typically by evening IST) and finalised by the exchanges the next trading day. Derivatives open-interest data updates after each session.
FII activity is the daily aggregate buy/sell flow across the whole market. FII shareholding is the stock-level percentage FIIs hold, disclosed quarterly. To see which stocks FIIs bought, use the quarterly shareholding pages; daily flows can't tell you that.
Not necessarily. DIIs (domestic institutions) often absorb FII selling — days with heavy FII selling and flat indices usually mean strong DII buying on the other side.
Derivatives serve both directional bets and hedging. An FII buying stocks may short index futures to hedge market risk — the cash flow reflects conviction, the derivative position reflects risk management.
They are close but not final — the exchanges reconcile custodian data overnight. Material revisions are uncommon but do happen; final data replaces provisional data here automatically.
