Taking stock
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) usually avoid penny counters, but a handful of such stocks have attracted sizable FII interest — over 15%. While most of them are struggling with negative one-year returns, the heavy foreign shareholding makes them worth watching.

Leading Leasing Finance and Investment
Despite being a sub-Rs 10 stock, more than half the company is owned by FIIs. It has held ground with marginal gains in an otherwise weak space.
3/6
Standard Industries
A fall of 20% in share price hasn’t deterred FIIs, who own nearly 39%. The stock remains under the penny category but with significant foreign backing.
