Equity Mutual Fund inflows rise 26pc to Rs 28,973 Cr in June: AMFI

New Delhi, Jul 10 (UNI) Investor confidence in equity mutual funds remained strong in June despite heightened market volatility, with net investments into equity-oriented schemes rising significantly from the previous month.
According to data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI), equity mutual funds recorded net inflows of Rs 28,973 crore in June, up 26 per cent from Rs 22,908 crore in May.
Although the mutual fund industry reported an overall net outflow of Rs 52,949 crore during the month, the figure improved from the Rs 64,131 crore net outflow seen in May.
The broader outflow was primarily driven by heavy redemptions from debt mutual funds, which witnessed net withdrawals of around Rs 1.09 lakh crore.
Despite the outflows, the industry's total assets under management (AUM) continued to expand, rising to Rs 82.22 lakh crore at the end of June from Rs 81.6 lakh crore a month earlier, reflecting gains in market value as well as sustained investor participation.
The latest numbers indicate that investor demand for equity funds has remained robust throughout 2026. Net inflows stood at Rs 38,440 crore in April, Rs 40,450 crore in March, Rs 25,978 crore in February and Rs 24,028 crore in January.
Among equity categories, mid-cap funds emerged as the biggest draw for investors, garnering net inflows of Rs 6,090 crore in June. They were followed by small-cap funds with Rs 5,602 crore, flexi-cap funds with Rs 5,231 crore, and large-cap funds with Rs 2,067 crore in net investments.
However, some segments remained under pressure. Dividend yield funds and Equity-Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS) continued to witness net outflows during the month.
Meanwhile, investor sentiment towards gold improved sharply. Gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) registered net inflows of Rs 3,443 crore in June, reversing the Rs 725 crore net outflow recorded in May, indicating renewed interest in the asset class amid uncertain market conditions. UNI VK SAS
