Mutual fund SIP inflows hit record ₹32,490 crore in September; equity inflows rise 31%

Mutual fund SIP inflows hit a record ₹32,490 crore in September, while equity mutual fund inflows rose 30.6% month-on-month. However, debt fund withdrawals led to net outflows of ₹1.33 lakh crore for the industry during the month.

Monthly investments through systematic investment plans (SIPs) in mutual funds touched a record ₹32,490 crore in September 2026, up from ₹32,297 crore in August, according to data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI).

The equity mutual funds also attracted stronger inflows during the month, even as the mutual fund industry recorded an overall net outflow, largely due to the substantial withdrawals from different fixed-income schemes.

Equity mutual fund inflows rise 30.6%

Net inflows into equity mutual funds rose to ₹38,307 crore in September from ₹29,328 crore in August, an increase of around 30.6% month-on-month.
