Equity mutual fund inflows climb despite market slump
09-Jan-25   14:47 Hrs IST
Open-ended equity mutual fund inflows witnessed a significant surge of 14.5% in December, reaching Rs 41,155.91 crore, driven by strong investor interest in thematic/sectoral and small-cap funds. This comes despite a 2% decline in both the Sensex and Nifty during the month.

A key highlight was the record-breaking Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) contribution, exceeding Rs 26,000 crore for the first time at Rs 26,459 crore. This marks 46 consecutive months of positive inflows for open-ended equity funds.

Sectoral/thematic funds emerged as the top performers, with inflows doubling to Rs 15,331.54 crore, primarily fueled by strong collections from 12 new fund offers (NFOs) that garnered Rs 11,337 crore.

Inflows into Small-Cap Funds also witnessed a robust 13.5% jump to Rs 4,667.70 crore. However, multi cap, large cap, and large & mid cap funds experienced a decline in inflows.

The fixed-income segment faced net outflows of Rs 1,27,152.63 crore, with liquid funds, money market funds, and overnight funds experiencing significant selling pressure.

Hybrid funds, which invest across asset classes, saw stable inflows at Rs 4,369.78 crore. Dynamic asset allocation/balanced advantage and multi asset allocation funds were key contributors.

Overall, open-ended mutual funds witnessed net outflows of Rs 80,509.20 crore in December.

The Indian mutual fund industry's net assets under management (AUM) stood at Rs 66.93 lakh crore as of December.
