What foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) and India's active equity funds bought and sold in Metals & Mining, month by month, and the companies the funds moved into and out of.
FPI figures: CDSL’s fortnightly sector report, equity. Latest fortnight 16–31 Oct 2026. Mutual funds: every active equity fund’s monthly portfolio, latest month both sides are in: October 2026.
Each side’s net buying in Metals & Mining as a percent of what it held in the sector, so the two compare on one scale. Above the line: bought more than sold.
Net buying by active equity funds in each company of the sector, at month-end prices (a price move is not buying), across the funds that disclosed both months. FPIs are reported by sector only, so there is no company split for them.

Plus: funds hold more of the sector than FPIs do, as a share of their equity. Grey fund counts: fewer funds in the data that quarter, so the funds’ weight is from a smaller sample.
