Investors prefer small-cap mutual funds; net inflow Rs 11,000 cr in Q1FY24

Mutual funds focused on small-caps have emerged as the winner with a net inflow of close to Rs 11,000 crore in April-June quarter, as fund managers struggle to create alpha in the large-cap space, and the trend is expected to continue for some time. On the other hand, large-cap space, which is yet to pick up momentum, witnessed an outflow of Rs 3,360 crore during the quarter under review, data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (Amfi) showed. Apart from the June quarter, small-cap funds logged an inflow of Rs 6,932 crore in three months that ended in March. "The strong rally witnessed in the mid and small-cap indices in the last few months, and the fact that it is becoming difficult to create alpha in the large-cap space can be the reasons for the huge inflows into smallcap funds" Himanshu Kohli, Co-founder, Client Associates, said. The huge inflows into these funds have made fund managers more cautious in their stock selection as the valuations have become stretched, he

Investors still warming up to ESG-focussed funds; asset base drops in FY23

Sustainable or ESG (environmental, social, and governance) focused mutual funds, which are in a nascent stage in India, have seen their asset base declining by Rs 2,020 crore in fiscal 2022-23 even as experts hope such funds will attract greater attention in coming years. ESG investing is gaining traction globally, and India is also witnessing an increased awareness and interest in sustainable and responsible investment practices. At present, there are 12 mutual fund schemes in India having ESG as their theme. "With growing concerns about environmental and social issues, coupled with regulatory initiatives to promote ESG investing, the demand for ESG funds is expected to rise in the future.
