SIP Assets Under Management (AUM) has increased to Rs 12.38 lakh crore due to ever increasing investment, which is equal to 19.2 percent of the total assets of the mutual fund industry.
Pure investment was positive for 48th consecutive month
The new data presented by Amphi showed that 8.26 crore SIP accounts made active contribution to investment during February. According to Nehal Meshram of Morningstar Investment Research India, domestic investors continued their strong participation in equity-oriented mutual funds in February 2025. Due to this, net investment in this segment has been positive for the 48th consecutive month.
Adverse conditions have reduced investment flows
Despite the recent instability in the market, long-term investors are committed to their investment strategies, reflecting the importance of disciplined investment amidst market fluctuations. Meshram further said, “However, adverse conditions in the short term have reduced investment flows, but continuous investment indicates that domestic investors have strong confidence.”
