New Delhi, Aug 11 (NationPress) Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) contributions reached a record-breaking Rs 28,464 crore in July, as per the latest data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) on Monday. This marks the second month in a row of unprecedented SIP inflows, following the Rs 27,000-crore milestone achieved in June.

The robust participation in equity-oriented mutual funds resulted in remarkable net inflows of Rs 42,672 crore in July—almost double the Rs 23,568 crore noted in June—driven by the surge in SIP investments.

Additionally, strong collections from New Fund Offers (NFOs) amounted to Rs 30,416 crore across 30 schemes, marking the highest monthly mobilization on record.

Investor preference leaned towards mid- and small-cap funds, attracting inflows of Rs 5,182.5 crore and Rs 6,484.4 crore, respectively, significantly outpacing the Rs 2,125 crore drawn by large-cap funds.

According to the data, sectoral/thematic funds led equity categories with net inflows of Rs 9,426 crore.

This achievement was facilitated by the launch of seven new schemes, which collectively raised Rs 7,404 crore. Large and mid-cap funds attracted Rs 5,035 crore, while flexi-cap funds followed closely with Rs 7,654 crore. The only category to experience net outflows was equity-linked savings plans (ELSS), which saw Rs 368 crore exit.

Simultaneously, the mutual fund industry’s net assets under management (AUM) surged to Rs 75.36 lakh crore, up from Rs 74.40 lakh crore in June and Rs 72.19 lakh crore in May.

Equity funds have enjoyed positive inflows for 53 consecutive months, with July's inflows being widespread across most categories. Retail participation is on the rise, with total mutual fund folios increasing to 24.57 crore in July, up from 24.13 crore in June.
