“This initiative seeks to reduce regulatory complexity, simplify compliance, and enhance India’s global competitiveness as an investor-friendly destination,” the Sebi statement said.

FPIs have been net sellers to the tune of ₹20,877 crore in 2025-26. They have been net buyers of just over ₹72,500 crore in equity markets on an aggregate basis in the five-year period ended August.

Mutual funds alone recorded net purchases of ₹4.79 trillion in 2024-25. FPI assets under custody have broadly risen from around₹29 trillion to over₹7o trillion now, mainly because markets have gained during the interim, driven by record domestic investments.
