FII DII Data October 14: FIIs Sell ₹1,857 Cr as DIIs Buy ₹2,670 Cr

FII DII data October 14 tells a familiar story: foreign investors sold Indian shares again, and this time the Sensex and Nifty slipped with them. Wednesday’s provisional exchange numbers show foreign institutional / portfolio investors (FII/FPI) as net sellers of ₹1,857.44 crore in the cash market. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought a net ₹2,670.44 crore. Put the two together and institutions were net buyers of ₹813 crore.

FII DII data October 14: what each side bought and sold

Here’s what the NSE FII/FPI and DII capital-market report for 14 October 2026 shows. These are provisional numbers and can be revised:

• FII/FPI: purchases of ₹16,381.85 crore against sales of ₹18,239.29 crore, a net sale of ₹1,857.44 crore.
• DII: purchases of ₹17,428.61 crore against sales of ₹14,758.17 crore, a net purchase of ₹2,670.44 crore.
• Combined net: +₹813.00 crore, with domestic buying more than soaking up the foreign selling.

CNBC-TV18 carried the same buy, sell and net totals. The foreign sale was bigger than Tuesday’s, when FIIs sold a net ₹1,305.13 crore and DIIs bought a net ₹2,439.24 crore (we covered that in FII DII data for October 13). It was still lighter than Monday, though, when net foreign selling came to ₹1,708.48 crore.

Selling on a red day for the indices

Unlike Tuesday, the selling this time lined up with a falling market. The BSE Sensex lost 251.89 points, or 0.34%, to 72,781.89, and the Nifty 50 shed 99.25 points, or 0.44%, to 22,622.70, PTI reported via The Tribune; NSE index data matches the Nifty numbers. PTI pinned the fall on profit-taking after Tuesday’s rally, on wholesale inflation jumping to 11.39% in September from 9.92% in August, and on firm crude, with Brent up 0.36% at $106.1 a barrel.

Dig a little and it wasn’t one-way traffic. NSE data has the Nifty Bank down 0.30% at 55,316 and the Nifty IT index up 1.14%. CNBC-TV18 said breadth stayed positive at roughly 3:2 advances to declines, and the rupee strengthened for a third straight session to close at 95.15 to the dollar.

The October tally so far, and what the FII DII data tells us

For October up to the 14th, the cash-segment table on Kotak Neo shows FIIs as net sellers of ₹44,649.56 crore and DIIs as net buyers of ₹48,510.02 crore. That leaves institutions as a whole net buyers of ₹3,860.46 crore. Put simply, domestic funds have taken in all of October’s foreign selling so far, plus a bit extra. If the terms are new to you, our explainer on what is FII and DII sets out how the two groups differ.

We’d look at the run of days rather than any single print. Foreign investors have sold in every session this week, and the daily outflow has jumped around instead of tapering off. Crude, the rupee and the second-quarter results now coming in are the things most likely to swing it. The day DIIs stop covering FII sales is the day flows start to really weigh on the indices. Until that happens, read the ₹1,857 crore and ₹2,670 crore numbers for what they are: an overnight provisional print that the exchanges can still revise.
