FPIs will return to Indian equities despite sustained outflows: HDFC AMC CEO

Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) will eventually return as net buyers of Indian equities despite sustained selling in recent months, as the country's long-term economic fundamentals remain strong, HDFC Asset Management Company Managing Director and CEO Navneet Munot said on Friday. His remarks come amid continued foreign investor withdrawals from Indian equities, driven by elevated global interest rates, high crude oil prices and concerns over emerging market investments. Speaking on the sidelines of the listing of the HDFC FTSE India Equity ETF at the National Stock Exchange (NSE) in Mumbai, Munot said foreign investors continued to show interest in select investment opportunities, including initial public offerings (IPOs), even as overall flows remained negative. We have seen FPI outflows over the last several quarters. But you can also see their interest in several of the IPOs, where foreign portfolio investors have participated.

Riyadh airport attack: Two injured Indians remain in ICU, says Embassy

Riyadh [Saudi Arabia], October 16 : Two of the several Indian nationals injured during the October 10 attack targeting Riyadh airport continue to receive treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), the Indian Embassy in Saudi Arabia stated on Friday. The update additionally noted that one further Indian citizen is in the High Dependency Unit (HDU), with three others recovering in a normal ward. The latest status update was communicated via a fresh advisory issued by the Embassy, which highlighted that Riyadh's international airport remains closed to flight operations. Meanwhile, airports in Dammam, Jeddah and Medina remain operational, though certain disruptions persist. Stating precautionary measures, the advisory noted, In view of the prevailing situation, Indian nationals should continue following instructions by local authorities, stay indoors in case of an aerial attack, and refrain from filming, publishing or sharing any information, photos or videos related to the ongoing events. According to the Embassy, Indian carriers have extended the suspension of flights to and from Saudi Arabia. Specifically, Air India and Air India Express have suspended operations across all routes until October 20, whereas IndiGo has halted services until October 24. Furthermore, Akasa Air has suspended its flights to Riyadh until October 24 and to Jeddah until October 21. Conversely, Saudia maintains scheduled flight operations to Indian destinations from Dammam, Jeddah and Medina. Meanwhile, Flynas operates scheduled flights along the Dammam-Lucknow sector, and Flyadeal has announced the introduction of Dammam-Mumbai flights scheduled for October 17-18. For Indian nationals seeking urgent departure, the Embassy suggested considering transit routes through Bahrain, Kuwait or Qatar, subject to obtaining the requisite visas. Addressing prospective travellers, the advisory stated, Indian nationals planning to travel to Saudi Arabia, including for Umrah, are advised to take into account the ongoing disruptions at Saudi airports and the possibility of flight cancellations, which may result in extended stays. Earlier on Thursday, India's Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Vipul, delivered a video message to the Indian community following the recent attacks, conveying India's condemnation of attacks on civilian facilities and infrastructure within the country. He mentioned that the Embassy had established dedicated helplines to assist Umrah pilgrims encountering difficulties, while cautioning individuals planning journeys to Saudi Arabia from India to account for potential disruptions. Ambassador Vipul stated, In the current situation, all of us have to remain calm and alert. Especially in case of an aerial attack, we have to remain indoors, adding that distributing any photographs or videos concerning the attacks violated Saudi law and risked legal complications. (ANI)

Oberoi Realty's Q2 revenue drops over 6 pc, profit rises marginally

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 16 (IANS) Real estate developer Oberoi Realty Limited on Friday reported a marginal year-on-year (YoY) increase in consolidated net profit for the quarter ended September 2026 (Q2 FY27), even as revenue from operations declined due to lower income from its core real estate business. The company posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 761.7 crore in the September quarter, up 0.2 per cent from Rs 760 crore reported in the corresponding period last financial year (Q2 FY26), according to its stock exchange filing. Revenue from operations, however, fell 6.1 per cent to Rs 1,671 crore from Rs 1,779 crore a year ago. Despite the decline in revenue, operating performance remained stable. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) stood at Rs 1,019.2 crore, broadly unchanged from Rs 1,020 crore in the year-ago quarter. The company's EBITDA margin improved to 60.99 per cent from 57.35 per cent, while net profit margin expanded to 43.86 per cent from 41.21 per cent. Total income during the quarter declined to Rs 1,736.4 crore from Rs 1,844.8 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal. Other income remained largely flat at Rs 65.4 crore compared with Rs 65.8 crore a year earlier. Finance costs eased to Rs 58.1 crore from Rs 71.2 crore, supporting profitability. Basic earnings per share rose marginally to Rs 20.95 from Rs 20.91 in the year-ago period. On a sequential basis, the Mumbai-based developer delivered a stronger performance. Consolidated net profit surged nearly 40 per cent from Rs 543.5 crore reported in the June quarter, while revenue from operations increased from Rs 1,300.9 crore. The decline in quarterly revenue was largely driven by lower earnings from the real estate segment. Revenue from the segment fell to Rs 1,625.3 crore from Rs 1,734.4 crore a year ago. In contrast, the hospitality business posted modest growth, with revenue increasing to Rs 45.6 crore from Rs 44.6 crore.
