• FPIs sold ₹17,955 crore from Indian equities in the first two weeks of December.

• Reasons for the selling include sharp rupee depreciation, high Indian market valuation, high US interest rates, and global tight liquidity.
• The December selling follows a net outflow in November, but October had seen an inflow, breaking a three-month selling streak.

Why It Matters: FPI selling impacts market stability and investor returns due to global and local factors.
