MUMBAI – A surge in inflows into open-ended debt and equity funds in July bolstered the industry's total net inflows for the month to INR 1.79 trillion, a sharp jump from INR 490.95 billion in June, according to data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India Monday. In July last year, mutual fund schemes recorded net inflows worth INR 1.89 trillion.
Open-ended debt funds posted an inflow of INR 1.07 trillion, compared to outflows of INR 17.11 billion in June. Amongst debt-oriented funds, the money market funds registered the highest inflows in July, worth INR 445.74 billion, followed by liquid funds with total inflows of INR 393.55 billion. In June, liquid funds posted net outflows of INR 251.96 billion.
Net inflows into equity-oriented schemes continued to rise, with inflows worth INR 427.02 billion in July, up from INR 235.87 billion in June. Data showed inflows in all fund heads except for equity-linked savings schemes, which saw a net outflow of INR 3.68 billion. Amongst equity-oriented schemes, thematic funds outpaced others with net inflows worth INR 94.26 billion in July. Flexi Cap funds continued to see traction with net inflows worth INR 76.54 billion. Small Cap funds followed closely, with net investments worth INR 64.84 billion.
Benchmark equity indices, the Nifty 50 and the Sensex, reported a month-on-month fall in July, which Venkat Chalasani, chief executive of the association, attributed to the uncertainty around tariffs from the US combined with other geopolitical worries which led to foreign fund outflows from Indian equities. However, the flows in mutual funds remained good due to investors' belief in "India's growth story," he added.
As an industry, mutual funds' assets under management were up just 1.3% on month at INR 75.36 trillion as of Jul. 31. The assets under management of open-ended debt funds were more than a trillion higher from the previous month at INR 18.76 trillion. The assets under management of equity-oriented open-ended schemes were at INR 33.28 trillion as of Jul. 31. The assets under management of liquid funds were at INR 5.42 trillion as of Jul. 31. Open-ended hybrid schemes, which saw a net inflow of INR 208.79 billion in July, had total assets under management of INR 10.03 trillion.
The inflows in debt schemes were supported by a rise in gilt yields in June. Dearth of positive cues and US tariff uncertainty led to a rise in gilt yields June, Chalasani said.
Systematic investment plans continued to grow, with record inflows of INR 284.64 billion in July, up from INR 272.69 billion in June. During the month, 6.9 million new folios were added under SIPs, while 4.3 million SIP folios matured or were discontinued in July, Chalasani said during the call.
Net inflows of 21 gold exchange-traded funds fell to INR 12.56 billion in July from INR 20.81 billion in June, the data showed. The assets under management in gold ETFs rose over 4% on month to INR 676.35 billion as of Jul. 31. Despite a fall in net inflows, the assets under management in gold ETFs rose in July due to "positive mark-to-market", said Chalasani. The trend in precious metals' funds usually goes up at times of volatility, and "since we are expecting short-term volatility, the trend will continue the way it has happened in the last few months," the chief added.
The net inflows in 15 silver exchange-traded funds in July were down at INR 19.04 billion from INR 20.04 billion in June. The net assets under management rose over 13% on month to INR 229.63 billion in July. End
