Explained on 26 October 2026. This is an educational answer drawn from the dated article below; examples are hypothetical unless a specific source observation is identified.

How it works

Scope matters. A broker-presented cash-market row is not a complete record of all foreign capital moving across every Indian asset class. Compare like-for-like dates and segments. Positive and negative values need their signs preserved rather than being recast as a single permanent market trend.

A simple example

In the dated source used by the article, the 23 October 2026 rows showed FII net buying of ₹887.65 crore and DII net buying of ₹3,235.36 crore. Those are observations in that table, not investor-level order records.

What to check

  • Identify the segment and source of the table.
  • Keep the exact date and sign with the number.
  • Use flows as context rather than a standalone price forecast.
