Data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) show that net inflows into equity-oriented mutual funds in India declined by 19% month-on-month to ₹24,690 crore in October 2025, down from ₹30,422 crore in September. The total assets under management (AUM) for the industry rose to ₹79.87 lakh crore. While the drop reflects moderation in fresh flows, systematic investment plans (SIPs), folios and retail participation remained resilient. Flexi-cap funds led the category with inflows of over ₹8,900 crore. The trend suggests cautious allocation amid market volatility.
