The demand for mutual funds in India has seen substantial growth over the past decade, driven by increasing financial awareness, greater access to investment options, and a rising middle class, and 2024 witnessed MFs getting a significant boost from retail investors.

Systematic Investment Plans (SIP) inflows registered a steep jump with investor count going up by nearly 10 million in the first 11 months of the year.

This led to a surge of investments in active equity schemes with Rs 3.5 trillion being poured into these schemes, more than double of what was invested in 2023.
