After a 15-month high Foreign Portfolio Investments (FPI) in the month of June 2020, it nosedived in July. With only one day remaining in the month, India received FPI of Rs 3,292 crore in July so far, falling sharply from a net FPI inflow of Rs 26,009 crore in the last month, according to the National Securities and Depository Limited (NSDL).
