Flexi Funds Lead March Inflows Amidst Market Shifts
11 Apr
Summary
- Flexi cap funds saw record inflows of Rs 10,054 crore in March.
- Smallcap and midcap funds experienced significant monthly jumps.
- Investors view corrections in SMID space as buying opportunities.
In March, flexi cap funds experienced their highest-ever single-month inflow, securing Rs 10,054 crore. This represents a significant 45% growth compared to the Rs 6,924 crore inflow recorded in February. Despite some funds underperforming and focusing more on large-cap stocks, investor confidence in flexi cap options remained strong.
Simultaneously, smallcap and midcap funds also witnessed robust investor interest. Smallcap funds received Rs 6,263 crore, a 61% monthly increase, while midcap funds attracted Rs 6,063 crore, marking a 51% rise. This consistent inflow into small and mid-cap categories over the past two years indicates a disciplined investment approach by many.
Experts suggest that investors are actively treating any dips in the small and mid-cap (SMID) space as favorable buying opportunities. The sustained discipline across these categories points towards systematic investment plans (SIPs) playing a crucial role, rather than just opportunistic lump-sum investments.
