Foreign investors pour record funds into Indian G-Secs

Foreign portfolio investors are directing record amounts into India's government securities this month following recent policy adjustments.

The inflows stem from tax exemptions on interest and capital gains, an expanded range of eligible investments, and eased limits on foreign holdings. A stable rupee and reduced geopolitical tensions have further supported the trend.

Momentum is expected to continue based on global economic conditions and possible additions to major international bond indices.

The policy measures have broadened access for overseas funds to India's sovereign debt market.

Foreign portfolio investors have injected nearly ₹10,000 crore into Indian bonds over four trading sessions. The inflows reversed recent outflows from the debt market.

India is set to reapply for inclusion in major global bond indices after introducing tax exemptions for foreign investors. The country has also expanded its pool of long-dated securities to strengthen its appeal.

Foreign portfolio investors pulled out a record Rs 1.18 lakh crore in March, driving the Sensex down 2.22% to 71,947.55 and Nifty 2.14% to 22,331.40 on Monday. The rupee breached 95 intra-day before closing at 94.83 against the dollar. Elevated crude prices above $100 per barrel due to the West Asia conflict added pressure.
