Foreign investors pull out $ 2.56 billion from Indian equity market in Nov

The foreign investors pulled out Rs 21,612 crore (USD 2.56 billion) from the Indian equity market in November, data by the National Securities Depository Limited said.

Notably in October, the foreign investors had pulled out Rs 94,017 crore.

The sale is mainly due to the rising US bond yields, strengthening dollar and expectation of a slowdown in the domestic economy.

However in September, foreign investors made a nine-month high investment of Rs 57,724 crore.
