In August 2025, mutual funds in India witnessed a net equity inflow of ₹33,417 crore, compared to a higher inflow of ₹42,672 crore in July 2025 (month-on-month decline).
According to AMFI data, the total Assets Under Management (AUM) stood at ₹75.18 lakh crore in August, marginally lower than ₹75.35 lakh crore in July. Within equity categories, large-cap funds recorded inflows of ₹2,835 crore (up from ₹2,125 crore in July), while small-cap funds saw reduced inflows of ₹4,993 crore, compared to ₹6,484 crore in the previous month.
On the other hand, mid-cap funds posted inflows of ₹5,331 crore, slightly higher than ₹5,182 crore in July, showing investor interest in mid-cap segments despite overall moderation.
Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) inflows in India saw a minor dip in August 2025, falling to ₹28,265 crore from July’s record ₹28,464 crore. This comes as equity mutual fund inflows also declined in August, though inflows into gold ETFs continued their positive streak, attracting ₹2,190 crore a significant jump from the previous month.
The continued interest in gold ETFs is attributed to the yellow metal’s appeal as a safe-haven asset amid weak equity markets and ongoing global uncertainties.
