Foreign investors continue to show confidence in the country's equity market, infusing Rs 18,620 crore so far this month, driven by a combination of global tailwinds and improving domestic fundamentals. This positive momentum follows a net investment of Rs 4,223 crore in April, marking the first inflow in three months, data with the depositories showed. Prior to this, foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) had pulled out Rs 3,973 crore in March, Rs 34,574 crore in February, and a substantial Rs 78,027 crore in January. FPIs are likely to continue their buying interest in India, and therefore, large caps will be resilient, VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments, said. According to the data from the depositories, foreign portfolio investors made a net investment of Rs 18,620 crore in equities this month (till May 16). The total outflow stood at Rs 93,731 crore in 2025 so far. India's equity markets witnessed a sharp resurgence in FPI activity in April. The sustained buying spree that began in mid-April continued in the current month, reflecting renewed investor confidence. "A key catalyst was the announcement of a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, which eased regional tensions and lifted investor sentiment," Himanshu Srivastava, Associate Director - Manager Research, Morningstar Investment, said. The global risk appetite also improved after a 90-day tariff truce between the US and China, prompting foreign investors to reallocate capital toward emerging markets, with India being a key beneficiary, he added. "With the global trade scenario improving after the pause in trade war between the US and China and the end of the India-Pakistan conflict, the investment scenario has improved," VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Ltd, said. On the domestic front, India's strong growth outlook, accommodative monetary policy, and robust corporate earnings expectations supported the FPIs' interest. On the other hand, FPIs withdrew Rs 6,748 crore from the debt general limit and invested Rs 1,193 crore in debt voluntary retention during the period under review. Last week, Sebi released the consultation paper proposing to grant certain waivers/relaxations to FPIs investing in the Indian government bonds through the Voluntary Retention Route (VRR) and Fully Accessible Route (FAR) to provide momentum to the drying bond market. This move comes at a critical time, as foreign investors continue to adopt a cautious outlook towards Indian bond markets, especially after the inclusion of Indian government bonds in the global bond indices, Manoj Purohit, Partner & Leader, Financial Services Tax, Tax & Regulatory Services, BDO India, said.

डिजिटल डेस्क, बेंगलुरु। आईफोन को लेकर भारत के लिए एक अच्छी खबर सामने आ रही है। भारत में आईफोन बनाने का दूसरा प्लांट भी तैयार हो चुका है। ताइवान की कंपनी फॉक्सकॉन इसी साल जून के महीने से भारत में बने आईफोन की शिपमेंट शुरू कर सकती है।

कर्नाटक के वाणिज्य एंव उद्योग मंत्री एमबी पाटिल ने शनिवार को इसकी जानकारी दी है। उन्होंने बताया कि बेंगलुरु के देवनहल्ली में बना फॉक्सकॉन का नया प्लांट लगभग तैयार है। जून की शुरुआत में आईफोन की कमर्शियल सप्लाई शुरू हो सकती है।

300 एकड़ जमीन पर बना नया प्लांट

बता दें कि ताइवान की कंपनी फॉक्सकॉन कॉन्ट्रैक्ट के आधार पर आईफोन बनाती है। वहीं, फॉक्सकॉन ने आईफोन की मैन्यूफैक्चरिंग के लिए देवनहल्ली के सूचना प्रौद्योगिरी निवेश क्षेत्र (ITIR) में 300 एकड़ जमीन पर अपना नया प्लांट स्थापित किया है।

कर्नाटक के मंत्री ने किया एलान

एमबी पाटिल का कहना है कि एप्पल के सीईओ टिम कुक ने ज्यादातर आईफोन भारत में बनाने का फैसला किया है। यहां तक कि अमेरिका में बिकने वाले अधिकांश आईफोन भारत में ही बनेंगें। एमबी पाटिल के अनुसार, कर्नाटक पूरी दुनिया में सुर्खियां बटोर रहा है और एक कन्नण व्यक्ति के रूप में यह मेरे लिए गर्व की बात है।

कर्नाटक के मंत्री एमबी पाटिल ने एक्स पर पोस्ट शेयर करते हुए कहा-

फॉक्सकॉन का यह कदम न सिर्फ मैन्यूफैक्चरिंग में मील का पत्थर साबित होगा बल्कि इससे रणनीतिक बदलाव भी देखने को मिलेगा। भारत जल्द ही आईफोन के उत्पादन का केंद्र बन जाएगा। इससे वैश्विक विनिर्माण क्षेत्र में कर्नाटक की स्थिति मजबूत होगी और भारत में विदेशी निवेश के रास्ते खुलेंगे।

एप्पल ने आगे भी भारत में निवेश करने का आश्वासन दिया है। बता दें कि हाल ही में अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति डोनाल्ड ट्रंप ने एप्पल को भारत की बजाए अमेरिका में प्लांट लगाने का सुझाव दिया था। हालांकि, एप्पल ने इससे साफ इनकार कर दिया है। एप्पल का कहना है कि वो आगे भी भारत में निवेश करता रहेगा।
