Global overview
US debt funds — net outflow continues in April
During the first four months of 2025, US debt and equity funds saw net outflows, with investors withdrawing funds
amid growing recession fears and ongoing discussions around tariffs. In contrast, the Indian market witnessed a
surge in inflows in both equity and debt categories, driven by renewed optimism around India's macroeconomic
fundamentals. Furthermore, strong corporate earnings results boosted retail participation in the market, with
individual investors taking a more positive view of the Indian economy.

domestic investors, and broad-based market strength.

Indian equities witnessed a broad-based rally in May 2025 driven by upbeat domestic sentiment and favourable
global trends.

Debt mutual funds
AUM of debt mutual funds dip
AUM of open-ended debt funds dipped 0.16% in May to Rs 17.54 lakh crore from Rs 17.57 lakh crore in April 2025.
The monthly net outflow in debt funds of Rs 15,908 crore reversed April’s net inflow of Rs 2.19 lakh crore.

Debt mutual funds witnessed MTM gains in May amid surplus liquidity, relatively tame inflation and easier central
bank policies that kept government bond yields low, contrary to global trends. The yield on the 10-year benchmark
06.79% government security 2034 ended at 6.27% on May 30, compared with 6.36% on April 30.

Despite some profit-booking at the beginning of May, RBI’s announcement of its debt purchase plan for the month
spurred optimism. As the month progressed, surplus liquidity conditions and softer-than-expected inflation data raised
expectations of a dovish outlook by the central bank, thereby keeping bond prices high. Bond yields also declined
following stronger-than-expected economic growth data for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.

A sharp fall in global crude prices led to some gains. Further gains were capped by dampened foreign investor
sentiment because of India’s recent border skirmish and rising US yields.

Money market funds attracted an inflow of Rs 11,223 crore, while liquid funds and overnight funds experienced
outflows of Rs 40,223 crore and Rs 8,120 crore, respectively. This can be attributed to relatively higher yields offered
by money market funds.

Within the category, corporate bond funds witnessed the highest on-month growth in AUM at 7.71% and inflows at
Rs 11,983 crore, driven by investors’ willingness to take on more credit risk in pursuit of higher yields in a low-yield
environment.

Hybrid mutual funds
Hybrid fund assets breach highs, driven by highest ever monthly inflows
In May, hybrid fund assets grew 4.43%, reaching Rs 9.55 lakh crore from Rs 9.15 lakh crore in April. The growth was
driven by MTM gains and the highest ever inflows amounting to Rs 20,765.05 crore.

All hybrid funds witnessed net inflows, with arbitrage funds accounting for the largest share of Rs 15,701.97 crore,
owing to higher volatility in equity markets. In volatile markets, price differences are more frequent, which typically
create opportunities for attractive returns. The monthly average of India Volatility Index rose 7.14% on-month to 18.02
in May, marking its second consecutive increase. The uptick in volatility created a favourable environment for
arbitrage funds, consequently attracting significant investments.

The hybrid category saw NFO – multi-asset allocation fund mobilising Rs 859 crore in May 2025.

is particularly encouraging, indicating a shift towards disciplined, long-term investment.

Monthly SIP contributions stood at a record ₹26,688 crore, with the number of contributing accounts rising
to an all-time high of 8.56 crores.

Equity inflows moderated to ₹19,013 crore this month, reflecting cautious investor sentiment amidst

behaviour among Indian investors. Notably, May also marked the industry’s 51st consecutive month of
positive equity inflows.
