FII Activity in April 2025

  • April 15, 2025: FIIs made their largest single-day net purchase since March 27, buying shares worth ₹6,065 crore. This surge was driven by strong buying in sectors like realty, banking, and auto.

  • April 17, 2025: FIIs continued their buying spree, purchasing shares valued at ₹18,210 crore and selling shares totaling ₹13,542 crore, resulting in a net inflow of ₹4,667 crore.

These consecutive net purchases indicate a positive shift in FII sentiment towards the Indian market.

While specific data on FII investments in HDFC Bank during this period is not detailed, the banking sector's prominence in the recent FII buying trend suggests that HDFC Bank likely benefited from these inflows. Historically, HDFC Bank has been a significant component of FII portfolios, and increased activity in the banking sector often correlates with heightened interest in such blue-chip stocks.

As of April 2025, HDFC Bank continues to demonstrate strong financial performance and stability. Here's a comprehensive fundamental analysis based on the latest available data:​
