Institutional money movement remains the strongest real-time indicator of market direction. On 11 February 2026, trading data from the NSE capital market segment showed a mixed picture — Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs/FPIs) turned net buyers, while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) booked moderate profits. Such divergence often sets the tone for near-term volatility and sector rotation.
After weeks of cautious positioning, FIIs returning as buyers on 11 February 2026 signals improving risk appetite. Global cues around US inflation stability and softer crude prices helped emerging markets, including India. Historically, even two to three sessions of consistent FPI buying have led to short-covering rallies in Nifty and Bank Nifty.
Domestic funds have been the backbone of Indian markets for the last two years. The mild selling seen today is not necessarily bearish. DIIs often rebalance portfolios after sharp moves and deploy cash gradually through SIP flows. Profit booking near resistance levels is a healthy market behaviour.
Institutional flows are not meant to trigger daily trading decisions but to understand the larger trend.
On 11 February 2026, the structure leans mildly positive as foreign money returned after multiple subdued sessions.
Over the last quarter, Indian markets have been reacting to three major themes:
Today’s institutional activity fits well into this narrative. FIIs are slowly increasing exposure to rate-sensitive sectors, while DIIs remain valuation conscious.
Platforms like Swastika Investmart provide daily institutional flow tracking, research views, and sector heatmaps to help investors interpret such data with discipline.
1. Why are FII and DII flows important?
They represent big money decisions. Consistent FII buying often drives momentum, while DII flows provide stability during corrections.
2. Is FII buying on 11 February 2026 a bullish sign?
Yes, it indicates improving sentiment, but confirmation over multiple sessions is necessary before calling a trend reversal.
3. Can retail investors trade only based on FII data?
No. It should be combined with technical levels, earnings outlook, and risk management.
4. Why do DIIs sell when FIIs buy?
DIIs rebalance portfolios and book profits, while FIIs react more to global macro factors.
5. Where can I track daily institutional activity?
SEBI and exchange websites publish data, and brokers like Swastika Investmart offer simplified dashboards.
The 11 February 2026 trading session shows foreign investors cautiously returning to Indian equities while domestic institutions consolidate gains. This tug of war is typical in a maturing bull market and often creates selective opportunities rather than broad trends.
For investors, the key is not to react to one day of data but to align with quality businesses and disciplined asset allocation. With research-backed insights, tech-enabled platforms, and SEBI-registered advisory support, Swastika Investmart helps you navigate such market phases with confidence.
The new delta variant of Covid 19, has gained much attention these days, as it is heavily spreading across numerous countries worldwide. The new variant, identified in India, is already spread in the U.K. and is growing rapidly in other services including Italy, France, and Germany. On Wednesday, The WHO said that the new variant has been detected in 96 countries while the Department of Disease Control and Prevention in the US called this variant a matter of concern as of June month, it accounts for 20% of all US cases. A handful of emerging market currencies have achieved many profits as compared to dollars this year. However, you may see the list may shrink as the excessive contagious delta variant heavily impacts the economies of developing countries. According to Credit Agricole CIB, countries that are already lagging in the vaccination rates may feel the pressure because they have already put restrictions that may hurt the economic activities of developing nations like South Africa. The best performers of 2021, the rand and rubble, were among the first that knocked an index of emerging market currencies lower in June for the first time in three months. Sebastien Barbe, the head of emerging market strategy at Credit Agricole, said that the achievement in terms of vaccination will be a differentiation factor among emerging markets in the second half. The impact of the further spread of this delta variant will significantly vary on the vaccination rates, and several economic and political factors, he added. Both the South African rand and Colombian Peso are currently experiencing the pain from a spike during the Covid 19 cases, which is keeping expectations for tiger monetary policy at bay. It also affected their economies: strict restrictions drastically affected African economic activities, Colombia, on the other hand, decided to postpone the plan to raise taxes to combat the crisis generated from the new variant.As per Al-Hussaini, a senior interest rate and currency analyst, the currencies of South Africa and Columbia, the weaker as compared to other countries. This is because the central banks of South Africa and Columbia have failed to hike interest rates so that they can build up a real rate cushion against the U.S.He further said: the prospect of higher fiscal spending and the risk of global outflows post-yield-hungry global investors flocked to the nations’ assets this year.If we compare the former two countries with Brazil and Mexico, then the peso will be more flexible because they kept their bank policy more strict than other countries.The real has outperformed all the developing nations even as the Covid 19 cases remains high. The consistent spread of new variant strain on Southeast Asia. MUFG Bank Limited expects a slight decline in the tourism revenue on Thailand’s baht.At the same time, Indonesia’s rupiah experienced a drastic fall since April, as the country imposed the strictest curbs yet on the economic centres of Java and Bali.
Only a few developing nations - Chile, Israel, China and UAE and Central Eastern European countries - have successfully vaccinated half of their populations, which gives us an idea to control the spreading of the Delta variant," Bank of America Corp. said once in a report last Friday. Most major emerging markets should get there by year-end that includes Indonesia, Mexico, Turkey, Brazil, India said David Hauner, head of cross-asset strategy at Bofa. South Africa is the outlier, as only 5% of its population is vaccinated. As per the current situation, it would take around 2023, for the nation to reach 50%. In Columbia, approximately 11% of the total population gets vaccinated - a lower proportion than Chile, Brazil and Mexico. Economic data bears out the division: purchasing managers’ indexes in Russia and South Africa, along with those in Asian regions with relatively low vaccination rates, fell in June. Those in Eastern Europe and Latin America, where vaccination programs are more advanced, mostly rose.This may put pressure on developing-nation central banks to remain accommodative, another negative for the currencies because the federal reserve has discussed the withdrawal of stimulus.As it could heavily create the distance between emerging and developed markets.Many industrialized nations such as the U.K. continue to struggle to combat the virus despite having tight restrictions and ease of vaccine availability. Hence, the latest surge in infections in many developing countries is not driven by the new strain which in turn said that outcomes could be far worse now.Copenhagen based senior macro strategist, Witold Bahrke said: "We are watching the resurgence of infection numbers closely. It is one of the factors that lead us to EM currencies, mainly due to its potential impact on the growth of EM-DM.
Central bankers in Peru, Poland, Malaysia, and Romania are requested to keep borrowing costs at their current levels. Romanian policymakers are advised to keep the nation’s benchmark rate at 1.25%. The leu has slumped 4.2% in 2021.Another day, Malaysia’s central bank is requested to hold its policy rate at a record low of 1.75%, thus maintaining an accommodative stance after the government announced a new fiscal package worth $36 billion last week. On Thursday, Peruvian policymakers expected to keep the country’s benchmark rate at a record low of 0.25%. However, they might take a more cautious tone in their statement after a higher than expected inflation last week.
Inflation is due from countries like Thailand, the Philippines and Taiwan on Wednesday. On Friday, China is all set to publish gauges of consumer and producer price inflation. According to Bloomberg's intelligence report, China’s PPI may cool from a 13 month high of 9% in May due to the price fall of metal ore and coal. Taiwan will soon post foreign reserve data on Monday, followed by Indonesia, China, and Malaysia. On Thursday, Thailand will submit foreign reserves data to the respective authorities.

Trading on equity with the purpose of investing is buying and selling company stock shares. The shares of distinct publicly traded companies are traded via a stock exchange or over the counter markets. Trading on Equity is a kind of trade-off. The firm makes use of its financing of debt or equity to buy new assets. In turn, it makes use of its new assets to pay for or finance its debt and equity obligations.
Trading on equity is carried out on two markets viz. The primary or the main markets – whereby new issues are first offered. The secondary markets – whereby subsequent buying and selling takes place.
Many buyers who assume common stock are too unstable are fascinated by the advantages of preferred shares. Depending on the company issuing preference shares is considered to be a good option rather than taking on greater debt.
With equity investors, there are no interest obligations and relying on the classification of shares being issued dividends don’t have to be paid annually. This approves the enterprise to reap the capital of which it wishes to increase besides on the spot money outlays for interest. It additionally provides the business enterprise time to make earnings with the new assets.
Trading on Thin Equity: If the equity capital is less than the debt capital of a company.
Trading on Thick Equity: If the equity capital is more than the debt capital of a company.
ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGES
Trading on equity is a simple approach in which the percentage of debt contents is increased in capital structure, however equity trading is buying and selling of shares in the stock market.
Investors are fascinated to buy shares whose rate of Interest is greater than fixed interest charges due to the fact investors can earn extra quantity of income in the form of dividends and it will additionally expand the price of shares.
Leverage means power. If an organization buys assets and its buy price is paid through getting a loan, then this system of trading on equity is known as financial leverage. Business enterprises do so because they are aware that the return on investment (ROI) is greater than fixed interest charges.
The company's tries to increase its financial power by purchasing all assets with the help of long term debt in order to earn a greater amount of profits with this system.
It is a well-known fact that option holders are always in all likelihood to cash in their options when there is a rise in earnings.
For this particular reason, buying and selling on equity leads to extra earnings, there are extra possibilities that options will earn a greater return for the holder. Since trading on equity may also lead to uneven earnings, it will increase the already known price of stock options.
The managers (not owners) are more likely to use such an option. Using the concept, managers have the danger of raising the price of stock options. On the other hand, family-run commercial enterprises will exhibit greater interest in financial stability, so they would keep away from this financing technique.

Last week the Indian stock market was very interesting! The reason is the Zomato IPO. Needless to say, the much-awaited IPO knocked at your door last week!
Started as Foodiebay Online Service Private Limited, in 2008 by two IIT students Deepinder Goyal and Pankaj Chaddah, the company has grown much which is now extended to 24 countries.
As per the sources, Zomato brought a revolution to the Indian stock market. An Indian startup is a leading Online Food Service Company in terms of food sold as of December 31, 2020.
The company offers business customer services mainly food delivery and dine out where customers can search and find out the location of restaurants, restaurant menu, order food delivery, make payments for the online delivery etc.
Before we move ahead, we want you to go through the complete analysis of Zomato DRHP. It will give you an idea of the company's business and financials.
In this blog, we take a dig deep into Zomato’s IPO.
Zomato Ltd is a leading online food service company in India that connects restaurants, customers and delivery partners. Zomato mainly works on business to consumer segment or B2C that offers online food delivery and dining out services. It allows customers to easily search, find restaurants, reserve a table, order online food and make payments through Zomato’s mobile application.
Zomato’s other B2B or business-to-business services generate revenue from Hyper pure. It supplies high-quality ingredients and kitchen products and restaurants. Also, it enables restaurants to buy fruits, vegetables, groceries, poultry, meat, seafood and beverages.
Hyperpure has direct contact with farmers, producers, and processors to source these products.
On August 1, 2020, Zomato offered a facility called Zomato Pro, a customer loyalty program. The subscription-based program offers discounts on the best restaurants across dine out and delivery.
Due to the highly successful business model, Zomato is able to generate more revenue, which helps restaurants to drive more sales. Furthermore, the company also host Zomaland, India’s greatest food carnival that brings some of the top eateries, DJs, musicians, and stands up comedians under one roof.
Due to its vast services that spread across the world, the Zomato brand is widely recognized across India. They are widespread and recognized across India. In 2020, the company popped up in the headlines when it acquired UberEats.
Ona recent basis, the company received approval from the CCI or Competition Commission of India to acquire a 9.3% stake in Grofers, an online delivery platform.
Now, they also ventured into cloud kitchen space in which multiple brands/restaurants can prepare food for takeaway or delivery.
As of 2020, Zomato App has been the most downloaded application under the food and drink category in India. Keeping this in mind, restaurants pay a significant amount of fees to the company so that they can be easily available on Google Playstore and iOS App store.
Now, the company has 3.89 lakh active restaurant listings and more than 1.69 lakh delivery partners. It has 15 Lakh Zomato pro members and ~ 3.2 crore monthly active users.
The members are present in more than 500 cities in India. The company's operations are also spread across 24 countries including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Arab Emirates. Due to its vast spreading of operations, the company has decided to start the usage of Electric vehicles (EV) for delivery by 2030.
The issue was publicly opened on July 14 and closed on July 16. The price of Zomato IPO per lot was fixed at Rs 72-76 per share. The fresh issue of shares (of the face value of Re 1 each) aggregates to Rs 9000 Crore.
The IPO consists of an OFS or Offer For Sale by a promoter called Info Edge India Ltd, which aggregates up to Rs 375 Crore. Investors who want to invest in the Zomato IPO, are required to go through a bidding process with minimum equity shares of 195 (1 lot). You will need a minimum of Rs 14,820 to apply for the Zomato IPO. Retail investors apply for 2,535 equity shares (13 lots).
Zomato Utilizes the Income Generated from IPOs for the following purposes:
If we look at the overall structure of the IPO then, we will get to know that Zomato firmly prioritizes its duties towards the growth of the company. At the same time, the promoters of the company will continue to hold a fixed stake in the firm, which makes sense in the company’s future prospectus.
FY 2018FY 2019FY 2020Revenue487.01,397.72,742.7Expenses594.03,607.95,006.3Comprehensive Income-104.1-1013.1-2,362.8Margin %-21.4-72.5-86.1
One of the primary risk factors in Zomato DRHP is:
Zomato has seen exponential growth over the years. However, the company said that it may not be able to sustain its historical growth rate. At the same time, its historical performance may not depend on its future growth and financial results.
The company has experienced huge losses in the past few years. It expects a rise in costs and losses in the future.
The financial performance and operations of the company could be adversely affected if they are unable to increase revenue, growth and maintain cash flows.
The COVID 19 pandemic has impacted the company’s online food ordering business to a greater extent. It has been seen that many restaurants were temporarily closed due to heavy lockdown.
Zomato’s business would be negatively affected if they fail to retain the existing restaurant partners or food delivery partners.
Zomato’s IPO is heavily subscribed by the HNI and retail investors on the launching of its first day. This is because it is a brand that everyone loves, admires and depends on. As per the interview, Zomato delivery partners gave us a satisfactory note that they are happy with Zomato’s perks and remuneration.
Because of its oversubscription and GMP (Grey Market Premium), investors of the IPO received huge benefits through listing gains.
Applying for an IPO is quite subjective and if you are planning to buy Zomato’s shares, don't’ forget to check all the pros and cons.
