Equity mutual funds experience lowest inflow in 13 months, with SIP contributions remaining robust in May.
Inflow in equity mutual funds slumped to its lowest level in 13 months to ₹19,013 crore in May, with large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap funds experiencing lowered inflows, primarily triggered by profit booking by investors.
This also marks the fifth consecutive month of decline in inflow in equity funds and nearly 22% drop in net inflow on a month-on-month basis from ₹24,269 crore registered in April, according to data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (Amfi) on Tuesday (June 10, 2025).
Despite the deceleration, May marked the 51st consecutive month of positive flows into equity-oriented schemes, reflecting sustained investor confidence.
Also, systematic investment plan (SIP) contributions remained robust, registering a record ₹26,688 crore in inflows in May, higher than ₹26,632 crore in the preceding month.
Overall, the mutual fund industry experienced an infusion of over ₹29,000 crore in May compared to ₹2.77 lakh crore in the preceding month.
The inflow has lifted the industry’s assets under management to a record ₹72.2 lakh crore as of May from ₹70 lakh crore in April-end.
According to the data, equity-oriented mutual funds saw an inflow of ₹19,013 crore in May, making it the lowest level since April 2024, when such funds experienced an inflow of ₹18,917 crore.
