Retail investors often track the moves of large institutional players—especially Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), who typically invest based on deep research and long-term conviction. December 2025 shareholding data shows FIIs increased their stakes in nearly 320 stocks with a market capitalisation above ₹3,000 crore versus the September quarter. A closer look reveals a striking trend: in 14 of these companies, FII holdings jumped more than 50% during the quarter, signalling a highly aggressive stance. Even more notably, FIIs more than doubled their stakes in six of them. Yet, performance hasn’t been uniform. Eight of these stocks have delivered negative returns since January 2026, while five have rallied over 15% in the past two months—three of which belong to the group where FIIs doubled their stakes.
