Total Net Investments (Cumulative):
| Investor Type | Net Investment (₹ Crore) |
|---|
| FII | 1,11,747 |
| DII | 12,62,400 |
| All Investors | 25,40,000 |
Notes & Assumptions:
- FII Investments: Based on net inflows/outflows from NSE/BSE data. Negative values indicate net selling.
- DII Investments: Driven primarily by SIPs and mutual fund inflows, with allocations: 80% large-cap, 15% mid-cap, 5% small-cap.
- All Investors: Estimated from market turnover and retail/HNI contributions (~26.67% market share by 2024). Includes FIIs, DIIs, retail, HNIs, and promoters.
- Sources: NSE, BSE, SEBI, CDSL, Moneycontrol, 5paisa, Economic Times, posts on X.
- Limitations: Exact market cap segment data unavailable; allocations are estimates based on index weightings. Total investments inferred from market cap growth (~$4.91 trillion by April 2025).
Great question! Let's clarify the difference between the two figures:
1. Total Market Capitalization of NSE & BSE (Estimated ₹30,75,00,000 crores):
- This is an approximate valuation of all listed companies combined on NSE and BSE as of around June 2025.
- It reflects the total worth of all companies based on their share prices and market cap.
- Think of it as the total value of the stock market or the aggregate value of all listed stocks.
2. FII, DII Net Investments (₹ Crore):
- This represents the net amount of money (buying minus selling) invested by Foreign Institutional Investors (FII) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DII) in the stock markets over time.
- The figures (like ₹1,11,747 crore for FII) do not represent the total market cap but net flows/investments during specific periods.
- These are net investments, meaning money coming into or leaving the markets, not the total valuation of the markets.
Key differences:
| Aspect | Total Market Capitalization | FII/DII Net Investments |
|---|
| What it measures | Total value of all listed companies | Money invested or withdrawn over time |
| Units | Crores (₹) | Crores (₹) |
| Timeframe | As of June 2025 (estimated) | Cumulative over years (2015–2025) |
| Nature | Market value of stocks | Investment flow/inflow/outflow |
Summary:
- The ₹30,75,00,000 crores is the total estimated market value of all stocks combined on NSE and BSE.
- The FII and DII figures are net money flows into the markets over the years, not the total market value.
