June 2019, was the third consecutive month of rise in equity flows, shows recent AMFI data. Equity funds saw inflows to the tune of Rs. 7,367 crore last month, up Rs. 2,398 crore compared to May 2019. Within equities, multi cap and large cap categories gained significantly while small and mid-cap funds saw lower inflows compared to May.
Commenting on the trend, N S Venkatesh, CEO AMFI said in a press release, “Stellar jump in the inflows into equity schemes over the last two months, especially after the decisive electoral verdict has helped repose retail investor trust. Political stability, lower inflation coupled with RBI stance to lower interest rates leading to possible robust growth in the corporate earnings is leading enhanced retail flows towards equity-oriented schemes.”
While equities flourished, debt schemes saw significant outflows last month. Fixed income schemes (excluding liquid and overnight funds) saw an outflow of Rs. 17,271 crore in June 2019. On a positive note, gilt schemes and long duration schemes saw net inflows owing to RBI’s dovish stance on interest rates, said N S Venkatesh.
Liquid and overnight funds meanwhile reported outflow of Rs. 1.56 lakh crore during the month. Vishal Kapoor, CEO, IDFC MF attributed the liquid fund outflow to the quarter-end phenomena of liquid fund redemptions by corporates.
While SIP inflows in the month of June 2019 (Rs. 8,122 crore) were marginally lower than May (Rs. 8,193 crore) overall they continue to maintain Rs. 8,100 crore + level. In addition, industry added around 4 lakh accounts in June to take the total SIP account number to 2.73 crore.
Overall, industry saw net outflow of Rs. 1.6 lakh crore largely on account of liquid fund redemptions.
