₹4 trn and rising: MFs on course for record equity purchase in '25
Business Standard
|October 07, 2025
Mutual funds’ net equity investments in 2025 have breached the ₹4 trillion mark.
So far this year, domestic fund managers have channelled ₹4.02 trillion into equities. They had invested a record ₹4.3 trillion in equities during 2024.
If the current pace continues, mutual funds are on course not only to eclipse last year’s figure but potentially to cross the ₹5 trillion mark.
The ongoing calendar year marks the fifth consecutive year of positive equity flows from mutual funds. The steady run of inflows in recent years has been supported by a robust post-pandemic market performance.
This year’s resilience, however, stands out, coming against a subdued market backdrop and persistent selling by foreign portfolio investors (FPIs). FPIs have withdrawn ₹1.6 trillion from domestic equities. As a result, the benchmark Nifty 50 is up only about 5 per cent so far this year.

Non-metro India now drives most crypto growth: Ashish Singhal
Ashish Singhal, cofounder of CoinSwitch, India’s largest cryptocurrency (crypto) trading platform, says crypto adoption in the country is rapidly shifting beyond metropolitan centres. Non-metro regions now account for nearly 76 per cent of India’s crypto activity among CoinSwitch’s 25 million users, while women investors make up 12 per cent of the user base. Despite a 30 per cent crypto tax and 1 percent tax deducted at source (TDS), the market remains youth-driven, with investors aged 26-35 contributing 45 per cent of total investments. In a video interview with Peerzada Abrar, Singhal discusses demographic trends, regulatory challenges, and the shift from speculative trading to long-term investing. Edited excerpts:
