Equity-Fund Flows Decline While SIPs Stay Resilient in India
In October, India’s equity mutual funds recorded inflows of ₹24,690 crore, marking a 19 % decline from the previous year amid cautious investor sentiment and volatile markets. In contrast, SIP contributions rose to ₹29,529 crore, indicating consistent long-term retail engagement. Meanwhile, debt schemes gathered about ₹1.6 lakh crore, signalling a shift toward liquid and overnight instruments.
Fund houses interpreted the trend as a defensive allocation stance ahead of key macro releases; however, diversification within equity mandates continued via flexicap and sectoral categories.

Equity Fund Flows Diverge as Debt Schemes Lead in October
In October, India’s equity mutual funds recorded inflows of ₹24,690 crore, down 19 % year-on-year, while debt funds attracted approximately ₹1.6 lakh crore amid investor caution and volatile markets. Systematic investment plans (SIPs) held steady, rising to ₹29,529 crore, underscoring long-term retail conviction.

SIP Contributions Edge Higher Despite Weak Equity Sentiment
Systematic investment plan contributions rose marginally to ₹29,529 crore in October, underscoring sustained investor commitment despite softening equity fund inflows. Flexicap and diversified equity categories continued to attract consistent SIP registrations, supported by long-term allocation strategies and improved digital onboarding. Market participants viewed the stability in SIP flows as a sign of maturing investor behaviour, even as near-term volatility prompted caution in lump-sum purchases.
Fund houses expect steady SIP momentum to continue, particularly as retail participation deepens across new financial centres.
