Smallcap mutual funds draw 44% of equity inflows
In short
Smallcap and mid-cap mutual funds got ₹16,873 crore last month. That was 44% of all equity fund inflows. The report says overall inflows were up 31% even though equity fund assets fell.
This matters because it shows strong investor appetite for smaller stocks, even with higher valuations than large caps. The reporting does not say whether the trend will continue or if investors should change course.
