Flexicap mutual funds have achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first diversified equity category in India to cross ₹5 trillion in assets under management (AUM). This achievement comes amid consistent inflows from investors attracted by the category’s flexible investment mandate and strong performance across market capitalisations.
The total AUM of flexicap funds has surpassed ₹5 trillion in 2025, marking a key achievement for the mutual fund industry. The growth has been driven by persistent investor interest, net inflows, and market gains throughout the year. As diversified schemes, flexicap funds can invest across large-, mid-, and small-cap stocks, maintaining at least 65% allocation in equities as per SEBI’s regulatory framework.
In the first 9 months of 2025, flexicap funds recorded net inflows of nearly ₹54,000 crore, representing about 20% of total equity mutual fund inflows. The category has seen inflows exceeding ₹7,000 crore for three consecutive months, with August 2025 alone witnessing a record ₹7,679 crore. This sustained demand underscores investor preference for funds offering flexibility and balanced exposure across market segments.

As of September 2025, India’s mutual fund industry’s total AUM stood at ₹75.61 lakh crore, with equity-oriented schemes maintaining positive inflows despite market fluctuations. Equity AUM touched an all-time high of ₹33.68 trillion, largely supported by gains in flexicap and mid-cap categories. Robust retail participation through systematic investment plans (SIPs) further strengthened the trend, with SIP inflows reaching ₹29,361 crore in September 2025.
The flexicap category’s achievement of crossing ₹5 trillion AUM marks a major milestone for India’s mutual fund industry. With consistent inflows, diversified exposure, and robust investor confidence, flexicap funds continue to stand out as a resilient and adaptive investment avenue in 2025.
