FIIs turn buyers after two quarters of selling; 15 stocks rally up to 265%, 6 turn multibaggers

After trimming exposure for two consecutive quarters, FIIs shifted gears in the March 2026 quarter, emerging as selective buyers in the broader market. They increased their stakes in 125 stocks with a market cap above Rs 2,500 crore, reversing the cautious stance seen during the June-September 2025 and September-December 2025 periods. The move indicates that fund managers, who had stayed on the sidelines earlier, are gradually re-entering the market in selected names.
In terms of stock performance, over the past one year, about 31 stocks delivered price returns of over 25%. FIIs are often considered informed investors, guided by deep research and long-term fundamentals, and their renewed buying after sustained selling typically reflects rising confidence in business prospects rather than expectations of short-term gains. We have highlighted the top 15 gainers, which surged 50-265% in just one year, including six multibaggers. (Data Source: ACE Equity)
