FIIs sold more than Rs 40,000 crore of equity in May which is the biggest figure in any month of 2024 so far.
According to data from depositories, Net FIIs' outflow for the month stood at Rs 3,064 crore as of June 14.

Foreign investors are preferring the debt market instead of equity.
So far this month till June 14, FIIs have invested Rs 5,700 crore in the debt market.
According to experts, "The reason for FIIs investing more in the debt market is the inclusion of India in the global bond index."
