Two large-cap-oriented mutual fund (MF) offerings — flexi-cap funds and large-cap funds — witnessed a spike in investor interest in October amid the decline in the equity market. Both categories logged their all-time high inflows last month.
Large-cap funds, which invest at least 80 per cent of their corpus in larger companies, attracted Rs 3,452 crore in October. Inflows into flexi-cap schemes stood at Rs 5,181 crore.
