Mutual fund houses mobilised ₹6,062 crore through 18 new fund offerings in October, according to AMFI data released on November 27. Hybrid, index and thematic categories led launches as investors shifted toward diversified strategies. The pick-up in NFO activity comes amid strong liquidity and steady retail inflows despite valuation concerns.

Mutual fund data for the latest monthly cycle shows rising SIP inflows into multi cap and flexi cap schemes, driven by consistent retail participation and improving market breadth. Fund managers reported broader sector rotations that helped reduce volatility and supported stable NAV growth across categories.
