Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) inflows in mutual funds reached an all-time high of ₹22,100 crore in October 2025, data from AMFI shows. The surge reflects strong investor participation in equity-linked schemes amid sustained market optimism and disciplined retail behavior. Equity AUM rose to ₹28.7 lakh crore, with flexi-cap and large-cap funds leading inflows. AMFI noted over 1.5 crore active SIP accounts, underscoring resilience despite global volatility. Analysts view this as evidence of long-term participation deepening within India’s domestic investor base.
