The Indian stock market is no longer dependent on foreign investors

Sanjay Shah, chairman and managing director of Prudential Corporate Advisory Services Limited, told Divya Bhaskar that SIP investment is much higher than foreign institutional investment at present and therefore Indian markets do not need to be completely dependent on foreign inflows.  SIPs have now become a means of supporting local equity markets.  SIP has increased since the lockdown.  For the first time in September, 2021, the monthly SIP investment was Rs.  10,000 crore.  More and more retail investors are opening new accounts.  About 26.8 lakh new SIPs were registered in September alone, up from 14.08 lakh new SIPs in April, 2021.

Investment through SIPs is more stable and regular

Sanjay Shah said there has been no consistency in FPI investment in the last few years.  While this flow has been high in some years, sales of foreign funds have also been seen in some other years.  On the other hand, investment through SIPs is more stable and regular and has helped to reduce market volatility to some extent.  Due to this, Indian markets are getting good support from local investors.

What is SIP?

Systematic investment plans or SIPs in common parlance are a means by which investors can invest a fixed amount in a mutual fund scheme at regular intervals.  Investors invest Rs.  SIPs can start with as small as 500.  SIP is a convenient method of investing in mutual funds by giving standing instruction of debit in a person's bank account.

An average growth of 25% in small investor investment

Nomura India said in a recent client note that the total investment inflow in SIP was Rs.  10,400 crore and is growing at an extraordinary rate.  The fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020-21 saw an average growth of 25% in small investor investment.  We have seen an increase in SIP accounts over the last eight months and the trend is getting stronger.  The last 3 to 4 months have seen a 3.5% increase in SIP accounts (as a percentage of book openings) on a monthly basis.

Lockdown reduced people's costs and increased investment

Manish Mehta, head of sales and marketing at Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company, said the cost of people coming to Kovid Lockdown last year was much lower.  Expenses including hotels, restaurants and traveling were closed, which led to increased savings.  During this time the market rallied and their portfolios saw encouraging returns, which led to their savings being converted into investments.  People have started investing in mutual funds through SIPs.  Millions of new investors have arrived in the last one year.

Indian stock markets have been booming for the last one and a half years.  As the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) index Sensex crossed 60,000 points, people's attitude towards the stock market has changed.  Investor attraction has also increased following the rally in the market.  As on October 22, the number of investors registered on the BSE has reached 8.38 crore.  Over the past one year, 2.78 crore new investors have entered the Indian stock market.  According to this, more than 1 lakh new investors are being added to the market every day.  The number of investors has increased by 50% during the last one year.
