Q) How is the future FPI flow expected to be?
Global equity markets continued to trade predominantly on news flows around the West Asian conflict and surrounding negotiations, resulting in sharp divergence in market returns across geographies. India also witnessed the onset of Q4FY26 earnings season, with marginal-to-modest earnings growth expectations. On the macro front, (1) March CPI inflation based on the new CPI series was at 3.4% yoy, (2) goods exports in March declined 7.4% yoy to US$38.9 bn, and (3) goods imports declined 6.5% yoy to US$59.6 bn in March. FPI flows are expected to remain volatile.
