Top Institutional Trades: Vanguard, Nippon India, and 360 ONE Lead Major Market Moves
Institutional activity remained strong in Indian equities this week, with significant buying and selling across key stocks by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs), anchor investors, and mutual funds. The latest data from the NSE and BSE reveals high-volume trades in companies such as VMM, SAILIFE, KBCGLOBAL, NORTHARC, and AVANCE. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the most notable stock market deals.
FIIs Make Aggressive Buys in VMM, SAILIFE, NORTHARC
Two massive trades in VMM stood out on the NSE:
- Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund bought 26,531,010 shares at ₹129.74
- Vanguard Emerging Markets Stock Index Fund acquired 23,967,366 shares at the same price
These trades underline Vanguard’s bullish stance on the stock, signaling potential long-term confidence in the company’s fundamentals.
In SAILIFE, Société Générale, another leading FII, bought 870,593 shares on BSE at ₹722, indicating interest in the specialty pharma space.
NORTHARC also saw healthy FII inflows. Cohesion MK Best Ideas Sub-Trust purchased 1,000,000 shares at ₹208.83 on NSE.
Mutual Funds Trim Exposure in NORTHARC; Buy SAILIFE
In contrast to the FII sentiment, mutual funds offloaded large stakes in NORTHARC:
- 360 ONE Special Opportunities Fund – Series 4 sold 7.48 million shares at ₹195.71
- Series 5 and Series 7 of the same fund sold 6.15 million and 5.76 million shares, respectively, at marginally higher prices.
However, in SAILIFE, Nippon India Mutual Fund showed conviction by buying over 4.98 million shares in two bulk transactions at ₹722 on BSE, reinforcing positive sentiment toward the pharma sector.
DII Activity: KBCGLOBAL Sees Mixed Signals
The penny stock KBCGLOBAL witnessed choppy movements, mostly led by Ankita Vishal Shah and Achintya Securities Pvt Ltd:
- Massive buys: 34.4 million shares at ₹0.51 on NSE
- Parallel sells: 32.2 million and 33.8 million shares across both NSE and BSE at similar prices
These high-volume DII trades hint at strategic positioning or internal reshuffling rather than pure market speculation.
Anchor Investors Exit AVANCE, IEL, WINPRO
Anchor investors booked profits in several small-cap counters:
- Moonlight Multitrade LLP sold 13.6 million shares of AVANCE at ₹0.75
- Sahil Gupta exited SGFIN with 1.25 million shares at ₹405.08
- Gaurav Chandrakant Shah offloaded 805,859 shares of WINPRO at ₹3.03
While such exits are expected post-lock-in, they often indicate valuation maturity or rotation into other opportunities.
Key Takeaways
- Vanguard’s twin entries into VMM signal global investor trust in Indian midcaps
- Nippon India’s SAILIFE bet shows pharma remains an attractive sector
- Mutual funds trimming NORTHARC could mean profit booking after earlier accumulation
- High churn in KBCGLOBAL reflects speculative interest and possible repositioning
- Anchor exits are part of natural market cycles but can add to near-term volatility
