$2.5bn foreign funds outflow in last eight trading sessions
Mumbai: According to data filed with the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the total sell-off by foreign funds in the last eight trading sessions accounted for $2.5 billion (Rs11,131 crore).

The pull out from Korea was higher during last week at $1.549 billion, according to the Emerging Portfolio Fund Research, which tracks foreign fund flows into emerging markets.

The other major markets that have witnessed sell-off include Taiwan ($1.185 billion), followed by Thailand ($555 million).

Analysts point out, however, that India had been receiving out of proportion inflows by foreign funds. With the Indian equity markets receiving about 20-25 per cent share of overseas funds dedicated to emerging markets it was not surprising that the outflows also were higher with foreign funds turning net sellers after the rise in the US interest rates.

The benchmark BSE-30 Sensex has shed 1884.48 points or about 15 per cent from the peak of 12,671.11 points on May 11.
