Equity Fund Inflows Dip in October as Investors Turn Cautious
Equity mutual fund inflows declined 19% year-over year to ₹24,690 crore in October as investors grew cautious amid persistent volatility. Despite major index gains, many allocators shifted to defensive positions. Fund managers observed softer flows across mid-cap and small-cap categories while flexicap funds remained resilient. Analysts noted that economic uncertainty and global headwinds contributed to a more measured risk approach. 
The decline comes even as SIP momentum stays intact, indicating that long-term investors are retaining disciplined frameworks.
