FII selling resumes in early September as financials, auto stocks face heavy outflows

Foreign portfolio investors resumed selling in early September after a period of net buying, with financials, automotive, and oil and gas sectors facing significant outflows. Healthcare stocks, however, attracted substantial inflows, signalling cautious market sentiment among overseas investors.

Auto and power stocks witnessed considerable sell pressure amid rising global concerns. The subdued foreign investor activity reflects broader caution in the market during this period.
