MUMBAI – The mutual fund industry recorded net inflows of INR 1.56 trillion in January, the highest since November, data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India on Tuesday showed. Open-ended debt schemes, which saw an outflow of INR 1.32 trillion in December, recorded inflows of INR 748.27 billion in January. 

 

There were net outflows of INR 665.91 billion from the industry in December. Total assets under management were at INR 81.01 trillion at the end of January, compared with INR 80.23 trillion the previous month. 

 

The total assets under management of debt funds rose to INR 18.90 trillion in January from INR 18.10 trillion at the end of December. Within debt funds, overnight funds witnessed the highest inflows at INR 462.80 billion in January. The assets under management of overnight debt funds rose to INR 1.26 trillion as of January-end. 

 

"...in January, we have seen extreme volatility in the markets, particularly because of the US government's attempts to acquire Greenland. Its intervention in Venezuela and its imposition of new tariffs heightened the uncertainty," Venkat Chalasani, chief executive of the association, said in a media interaction after the release of the data. 

 

Net outflows from corporate bond funds in January rose to INR 114.73 billion from INR 74.20 billion in December as yields hardened. "The 10-year yields have gone up. And so two things: one, the corporate issuances also have come down. The negative inflows are more because people have started existing, maybe move towards the short term rather than going towards medium to long term investments," Chalasani said.

 

The assets under management of corporate bond funds was INR 1.95 trillion in January, down nearly 6% on month due to marked-to-market losses.

 

The yield on National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development's three-year bond rose 28 basis points to 7.20% from 6.92?cember. Similarly, the yield on the five-year NABARD benchmark bond was up 30 bps in January at 7.35% from 7.05% in December and that on 10-year was up 16 bps at 7.42% in January.

 

Lquid funds saw an inflow of INR 306.82 billion in January, taking the total AUM to INR 18.90 trillion as on Jan. 31. 

 

Open-ended equity funds saw inflows of INR 240.29 billion in January, the data showed. The total assets under management of equity funds was at INR 34.87 trillion at the end of January. Within equity, flexi-cap funds saw inflows of INR 76.72 billion in January, with total assets at INR 5.47 trillion. Mid-cap funds saw inflows of INR 31.85 billion in January. Assets under management of mid-cap funds rose to INR 4.49 trillion at the end of the month. 

 

Systematic investment plans saw inflows of INR 310.02 billion, largely unchanged from the previous month. The assets under management of SIPs was at INR 16.36 trillion at the end of January. While 7.4 million new folios were added in SIPs during the month, 5.5 million folios matured or were discontinued. 

 

Net inflows into gold and silver ETFs in January were at a record high due to firm demand. Net inflows into 25 gold exchange-traded funds in January were at a record high of INR 240.40 billion, surging over 106% on month. Net inflows into silver exchange-traded funds in January skyrocketed to INR 94.63 billion from INR 39.62 billion in December. In fact, for the first time ever, total inflows into gold and silver ETFs, at INR 334.63 billion, were higher than those into open-ended equity oriented funds of INR 280.54 billion in January, Chalasani said.    

 

The assets under management of gold ETFs rose over 44% on month to INR 1.84 trillion last month. The assets under management of silver ETFs rose nearly 61% on month to INR 1.17 trillion during the month.

 

Chalasani expects inflows into bullion ETFs to continue going forward. "The gold as long as the central government keeps buying, gold prices would be going up...silver as long as industrial consumption happens, you find the price going up. So we'll have to keep an eye on how the things are shaping up," he said, adding that clarity on the India-US trade deal has removed major headwinds for investors.  End
