SIP net inflows = Gross SIP inflows - outflows from SIP account through redemption and switches irrespective of when it was invested.
A Balasubramanian, MD and CEO, Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund feels that the net to gross SIP ratio of the industry has been less than 50% for very long time. This is largely due to maturity of existing SIP accounts and switching of schemes by investors. Redemption is not so high in SIPs, he added.
Bala said that as long as topline i.e. gross SIP inflows is strong, the industry should not worry about net SIP ratios.
A CEO of a top fund house requesting anonymity said that stellar performance of equity markets has led to redemption from SIP accounts.
Another CEO said that discontinuation of SIPs has increased due to the ongoing KYC issue. Many investors have seen their SIP contribution not debiting from their bank account.
