Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) remained net sellers for the fifth consecutive trading session on 02nd June 2026, offloading equities worth ₹8,362 crore, reflecting continued caution among overseas investors. However, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) extended their buying streak and remained strong net buyers, purchasing equities worth ₹9,589 crore, which helped absorb foreign selling pressure and provided support to the broader market.
The market has shown resilience by absorbing early weakness and attracting buyers at lower levels, indicating that downside pressure is currently being met with demand. Improving participation across sectors and easing volatility have helped stabilize sentiment. While the recovery is encouraging, the sustainability of the upmove will depend on the indices’ ability to overcome nearby resistance levels and maintain strength above key support zones in the coming sessions,” says Hitesh Tailor, Research Analyst, Choice Equity Broking Private Limited.
