FII/DII Tracker: Where the Data Comes From
An FII/DII tracker is a tool that collects the daily foreign and domestic institutional flow figures the exchanges publish and keeps them in a dated history you can read at a glance. Every trading day after the close, NSE and BSE release provisional cash-market figures for Foreign Institutional Investors and Domestic Institutional Investors. On its own, a single day's number is easy to find; the value of an FII/DII tracker is holding the series over time, marking provisional versus final, and connecting the flow to company-level ownership.
Definition
An FII/DII tracker
is a tool that gathers the daily provisional FII and DII cash-market figures published by the NSE and BSE and stores them as a dated series, so you can see the trend instead of one day. It presents exchange data, not advice. Source: NSE and BSE.
What data an FII/DII tracker collects
The core input is the exchanges' provisional net figure: how much FIIs and DIIs bought versus sold in the cash market that day, netted to a single rupee-crore number for each group. Final, revised data and derivatives activity follow on a lag. For the background on the categories and what the number measures, see what FII/DII activity is, and for the daily routine, see how to track FII/DII activity daily.

What a good FII/DII tracker does well
Since the underlying data is public, the differences come down to handling:
- A dated history, so you can read a run of days rather than one number in isolation.
- Provisional versus final labelling, because same-day figures get revised.
- Both FII and DII side by side, since they often move in opposite directions.
- A link to per-stock ownership. The daily flow is market-wide; to see which names institutions hold you need the shareholding pattern.
- No signal framing. A net flow figure is not a call on any stock.
What an FII/DII tracker cannot tell you
The daily figure is a market-wide net number. It does not say which stocks were bought or sold, and it is not a recommendation. A day of heavy outflow can sit alongside strong buying in individual names, and the reverse. Read the flow as one input into the broader ownership picture, not as a signal in itself.
Flock keeps FII/DII figures dated and source-linked, and ties institutional flow to the company-level holding behind it. What the data means for you is your call to make.
Frequently asked questions
What does an FII/DII tracker show?
It collects the daily provisional FII and DII cash-market figures the exchanges publish after close, and keeps a dated history so you can see the trend rather than a single day. Some also tie the flow to per-company holding. Source: NSE and BSE.
Is FII/DII tracker data a trading signal?
No. FII/DII figures are a market-wide net flow in rupees, not a signal on any stock, and not advice. A tracker's job is to present the exchange data accurately and dated. What you do with it is your own decision. Source: NSE and BSE.
How often does an FII/DII tracker update?
Provisional cash figures update every trading day after the close, with final revised numbers later. A good tracker marks which figures are provisional versus final and stamps each with its date. Source: NSE and BSE.
