P-note investments hit 11-month low of Rs 64,537 crore in December-end

18 Feb 2020 Evaluate

The share of foreign portfolio investments (FPI) in domestic capital markets through participatory notes (P-notes) continue to decline and hit a nearly 11-year low of Rs 64,537 crore till the end of December 2019. P-notes are issued by registered foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) to overseas investors who wish to be part of the Indian stock market without registering themselves directly after going through a due diligence process.

According to the latest data from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the cumulative value of P-note investments in the domestic markets -- equity, debt, and derivatives -- fell to Rs 64,537 crore till December-end from Rs 69,670 crore in November-end. Out of the total investments made till the end of December, Rs 52,486 crore was invested in the equities segment, Rs 11,415 crore in debt and Rs 636 crore in the derivatives market.  A total investment of Rs 76,773 crore was registered at the end of October. This was first gain after a continuous decline since June.

Earlier in September, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) simplified KYC requirements and registration process for FPIs. Besides, the regulator broad-based the classification of such investors. Under the new rules, FPIs have been divided into two categories and around 80 percent falls under Category-I and investors planning to set up shop as Category-I is required a simple application form. Earlier, such investors were slotted into three categories -- I, II and III.
