  • Market was affected by global banking crisis and persisting inflation. Major events included the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Credit Suisse’s buyout by rival UBS, global inflation, and continuing geopolitical tensions.
  • In January and February 2023, FPIs sold Indian equities worth $4.21 billion due to expectations of further hawkishness from the Fed and fears of an impending global slowdown. March was better with FPIs ending up as net buyers to the tune of $966 million. However, this was largely accounted for by the $1.9 billion purchase of Adani group shares by GQG Investments. In March FIIs bought equities worth Rs 1,997.70 Crore and DIIs Rs 30,548.77 Crore.
