According to data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI), equity inflows into mutual funds decreased by 5% month-on-month in April, totaling ₹38,440.20 crore. This decline follows March's inflows of ₹40,450.26 crore. The slowdown is attributed to reduced investments in sectoral and thematic schemes. However, systematic investment plan (SIP) inflows remained relatively stable, moderating slightly to ₹31,115 crore from a record high of ₹32,087 crore in March. Overall, the mutual fund sector saw a positive turnaround with total inflows reaching ₹3,22,402.98 crore in April, contrasting sharply with net outflows of ₹2,39,910 crore in the previous month.
