The mutual fund industry was a net seller of Indian equities for Rs 1,497 crore in July, the Sharekhan report added.

According to Sharekhan, other stocks that fell prey to profit-booking by mutual funds were Infrastructure Development Finance Co Ltd (1.2 crore shares), ITC Ltd (1.09 crore), Dabur India Ltd (1.02 crore) and Crompton Greaves Ltd (0.71 crore).
