India‑based mutual fund flows concentrate heavily into 19 stocks as 2025 plays narrow
Mutual funds in India channelled half of their 2025 equity inflows into just 19 stocks, raising concerns over concentration risk.
Industry wide data published recently shows that Indian mutual funds allocated about 50% of their equity‑scheme inflows in 2025 (₹2.67 lakh crore) into only 19 stocks, including major names in technology, banking and paints sectors. Fund‑managers say this reflects a strategy of picking conviction names amid valuation uncertainty and global headwinds. Analysts warn that such concentration creates portfolio risk if any single name or sector undergoes stress.
The data underscores narrowing breadth in retail‑fund flows and potential vulnerability in diversified‑market scenarios.
