Midcaps become magnets
Tracking the activity of Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) can provide valuable insights, as their investment decisions are typically driven by extensive research. In March 2026, FIIs increased their holdings in around 67 BSE midcap stocks compared to the previous quarter. From the end of the March quarter, i.e., from early April to date, a period of just over three months, most of these stocks have delivered decent returns. Within this period, we highlight 11 stocks that rallied in the range of 40-70%.
Notably, in the midcap segment, FIIs’ top holdings are concentrated in three stocks: Max Financial Services (47.88%), Yes Bank (46.42%), and UPL (41.78%). Among these, Yes Bank witnessed a sharp surge over the past three months, delivering a price return of 41%, while the other two also posted gains, albeit in single digits. (Data Source: ACE Equity)
