Commentary on AMFI Data by Naval Kagalwala, COO and Product Head, Shriram Wealth Ltd
Despite net positive inflows into mutual funds in August—adding 31.85 lakh new folios and Rs. 52,443 crore—the month-on-month growth rate slowed compared to July. Equity & Hybrid schemes saw 21.88 lakh new folios, marking a 37% drop from July’s 34.69 lakhs. Similarly, net inflows in these schemes declined by 24%, from Rs. 63,582 crore in July to Rs. 48,724 crore in August. This dip coincides with a 2% decline in the Nifty 500 index during August 2025 and a 5.5% fall over the past year, attributed to tariff uncertainties, FII sell-offs, and subdued earnings amid elevated valuations.
