However, in November they turned net buyers, injecting Rs 53,739 crore in the first nine days after two months of outflows, motivated by a global AI‑driven sell‑off, strong domestic earnings growth and attractive large‑cap valuations. During this period, top large‑, mid‑, small‑ and micro‑cap stocks recorded rising foreign ownership for two straight quarters.
