Inflows into India’s multi-asset allocation mutual funds jumped 22.46% month-on-month in June, reaching ₹4,810.76 crore from ₹3,928.51 crore in May, according to data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI).
The sharp increase underscores a growing investor preference for diversified portfolios as equity market volatility intensifies.
The surge in multi-asset inflows highlights a tactical rotation away from pure equity exposure toward hybrid instruments that blend equities, debt, and gold.
This shift reflects heightened risk aversion among retail and institutional investors seeking downside protection while maintaining growth potential.
Multi-asset funds, which mandate a minimum allocation to non-equity assets, have emerged as a key beneficiary of this defensive positioning.
This development aligns with broader trends in Indian mutual fund flows, where hybrid categories have gained traction amid uncertain macroeconomic conditions.
