  • 16 stocks received inflows between ₹1,000–₹10,000 crore

  • 21 stocks attracted ₹500–₹1,000 crore

  • The rest saw more modest inflows ranging from ₹1–₹500 crore

  • 16 stocks saw exits between ₹500–₹1,000 crore

  • Over 400 other stocks had outflows between ₹1–₹500 crore

Among the top sellers were ICICI Bank and Infosys, signaling profit booking or repositioning strategies within the mutual fund universe.
