Nithin Kamath’s recent comments about Fiis outflow reflect the perspective of a market participant, but as a nation India must prioritize long-term value creation over short-term market sentiment.
While FII can influence stock prices and liquidity, FDI is what builds factories, creates jobs, brings technology, and strengthens the real economy.
That is also why the government is putting more effort into attracting FDI rather than depending mainly on FII.
The focus should be on stable, productive capital that supports manufacturing, employment, and sustainable growth not just fast-moving money that benefits only a small section of market participants.
India’s real priority should be long-term economic strength, broad-based development, and lasting prosperity for millions not just short-term gains for the 6–7% who actively participate in the markets.
Remember
FDI builds the nation. FII moves the market..
