New Delhi, Oct 10 – The Indian mutual‑fund market kept growing in September, with assets under management (AUM) reaching ₹75.61 lakh crore, up from ₹75.18 lakh crore in August, AMFI data shows.
Equity inflows slowed to ₹30.4 billion, a drop from ₹33.4 billion in July, but the overall rise in AUM shows investors still trust mutual funds.
Large‑cap funds drew ₹2.32 billion, mid‑cap funds pulled in ₹5.09 billion, and small‑cap funds collected ₹4.36 billion. Hybrid funds stayed popular, taking ₹9.4 billion, while new fund launches added ₹1.96 billion during the month.
Sectoral, thematic and ELSS funds saw modest money, suggesting a more selective strategy from investors.
On the debt side, liquid funds lost money as money moved elsewhere; corporate bond and credit‑risk funds had small outflows.
Exchange‑traded funds (ETFs) continued to attract investors, with ₹8.15 billion flowing in during September, up from ₹7.24 billion in August. Gold‑ETF inflows surged to ₹8.36 billion from ₹2.19 billion, reflecting the appeal of gold amid market volatility.
Overall, the data indicates that even as investors take a cautious stance, mutual funds remain a top choice, especially ETFs and gold funds that are seen as safer options in today’s market.
In related news, Motilal Oswal data shows passive mutual‑fund AUM hit ₹12.2 lakh crore in 2025, a 6.4‑fold jump since 2019 and a compound annual growth rate of roughly 36 %.
