Telecom operating proxies are steady, with telecom subscriber base up 11.0% YoY (2026-06) and broadband subscriber base also up 11.0% YoY (2026-06). However, persistent FPI outflows of INR -11055 crore over 3 months to 2026-08-31 suggest weak investor appetite. That combination supports a neutral rather than positive stance.
