Small Cap Mutual funds: Equity mutual funds witnessed a sharp rise in investor inflows even as the overall mutual fund industry recorded substantial net outflows in September 2026, according to the latest September data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI). Net inflows into equity-oriented mutual fund schemes surged 30.61 per cent month-on-month to Rs 38,306.55 crore, compared with Rs 29,328.62 crore in the previous month. However, the mutual fund industry reported overall net outflows of Rs 1,33,375.57 crore, against net inflows of Rs 41,353.60 crore in the preceding month. The industry's total assets under management (AUM) declined to Rs 82.64 lakh crore from Rs 87.08 lakh crore, marking a fall of approximately 5.1 per cent month-on-month. Despite strong inflows into equity schemes, their total AUM declined to Rs 37.54 lakh crore from Rs 39.21 lakh crore in the previous month, a drop of approximately 4.3 per cent. The decline in equity AUM came even as investors continued to allocate money to several equity mutual fund categories, particularly small-cap and mid-cap schemes.
