SIP net flows = Gross SIP inflows - outflows from SIP account through redemption and switches irrespective of when it was invested
Mumbai MFD Viral Bhatt feels that many investors have booked profits due to exceptional performance of equity funds. He said, “Another reason is festive season. Many people want to spend money on cars, cloths and house repairing. This has led to discontinuation of SIPs and redemption from SIP accounts.”
He also points out that layoffs in the IT sector has also reduced the net SIP numbers in the first six months of the current financial year.
SIP Champion MFD Nikul Parmar who recently won the Cafemutual Big League Award attributes this to affinity of people towards real estate. He said that many people have redeemed or stopped their SIPs as they want to buy a house or start paying EMIs.
