If you also invest in SIP i.e. Systematic Investment Plan, then this news is important for you. In fact, in April 2025, investment in mutual funds through SIP created a new history. According to the report of Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI), 26,632 crores was inflated in April, which is the highest ever. The biggest thing is that about 8.38 crore investors took part in it. That is, people are now showing interest in investing money through SIP.
Equity funds condition something different
While records are being made in SIP inflow, equity funds saw a decline of sixth consecutive month. In April, Inflow in Equity Schemes fell to 24,269 crore, which is the lowest figure of the last 12 months. Inflow in small-cap schemes fell 2.3 per cent to 3,999 crore. Apart from this, mid-cap schemes saw a decline of 3.6 per cent, while large-cap funds saw a slight rise, which stood at 2,671 crore. At the same time, investment in sectoral and thematic funds made a tremendous bounce, which was 2001 crore. This time this boom has come from the interest of investors himself, not from a new NFO (New Fund Offer).
return of hybrid funds
Gold ETF received a slight outflow in April, which was 5.82 crores. It is believed that investors booked the profit after reaching the all-time high of gold. At the same time, Hybrid Funds, especially Arabitraj Schemes, have had 11,000 crores inflow, that is, they are now becoming ‘parking space’, where people are making further planning by putting money temporarily.
Investors are now running from ‘Fundamentals’
AMFI’s data clearly shows that today’s Indian investors do not get caught in the noise of social media or rumors. He is focusing on fundamentals with long thinking. Even though the net inflow declined by 3.2 per cent in April, equity AUM (Asset Under Management) has increased by 4 per cent and the entire industry AUM has grown by 6 per cent, now the total AUM record has reached 69.9.9 lakh crore.
