MFs trim holdings in 12 stocks for 2 straight quarters; shares tumble up to 50%

An analysis of mutual fund (MF) shareholding trends in BSE 500 stocks over the past two quarters shows that fund houses have consistently trimmed their holdings in 84 stocks. MFs reduced their stakes in these companies in both the June 2026 and March 2026 quarters.
Of these, 28 stocks have declined more than 10% so far in CY2026, while 14 have seen their share prices fall between 25% and 50% in just eight months.
Mutual funds are considered informed investors, often making investment decisions based on extensive research and their assessment of a company’s long-term fundamentals. While MF buying can boost investor confidence, a sustained reduction in their holdings is a trend worth watching. Data source: ACE Equity
