SIP Contributions Edge Higher Despite Weak Equity Sentiment

SIP inflows increased to ₹29,529 crore in October as investors maintained long-term discipline despite weaker equity fund sentiment and rising market volatility.
Systematic investment plan contributions rose marginally to ₹29,529 crore in October, underscoring sustained investor commitment despite softening equity fund inflows. Flexicap and diversified equity categories continued to attract consistent SIP registrations, supported by long-term allocation strategies and improved digital onboarding. Market participants viewed the stability in SIP flows as a sign of maturing investor behaviour, even as near-term volatility prompted caution in lump-sum purchases.
Fund houses expect steady SIP momentum to continue, particularly as retail participation deepens across new financial centres.
