Foreign inflows spur hopes for rebound in India’s beaten-down large caps
Global funds have turned net buyers of Indian equities for a fourth consecutive week, with strategists flagging improving earnings visibility and more attractive large-cap valuations versus small/mid caps. The Nifty 50's ~7% YTD decline has widened the large-cap discount to ~25% versus small caps, far above the five-year average. With foreign ownership higher in large caps and banks, flows may disproportionately support Nifty heavyweights near term.

Major global banks including Goldman Sachs, Jefferies and BNP Paribas say foreign investors have been net buyers of Indian equities for four straight weeks, with buying concentrated in large caps such as banks. The Nifty 50 is down about 7% this year, while large caps trade at a 25% discount to small caps versus a five-year average of 6%. The firms argue large caps look more attractively valued, offer better earnings visibility and could be the first beneficiaries as overseas money returns.
