A drop in institutional shareholding refers to a reduction in the number of shares held by institutional investors—such as mutual funds, pension funds, and insurance companies—in a particular company. Based on shareholding disclosures available so far for the March 2026 quarter, within the Nifty 500 segment, we have highlighted the top 10 stocks that saw a decline of over 100 basis points in institutional holdings (FII + DII) compared to December ’25, according to StockEdge data.
Such a decrease typically occurs when institutions sell their holdings for reasons including portfolio rebalancing, profit-taking, or reduced confidence in the company’s future prospects.
