Companies where MFs pared their stake
The month of July 2021 saw huge inflows in equity-dedicated mutual funds. After several months, we saw net inflows crossing Rs 20,000 crore. Nonetheless, this inflow should be taken with a pinch of salt. As there were many new fund offers (NFO) during the period, one of the Flexi-cap funds managed to garner around Rs 10,000 through NFO. The total collection in the month of July through NFOs was to the tune of Rs 13,709 crore.
The redemption from the equity-dedicated mutual fund is still very high and for the month of July, it was Rs 19,517 crore compared to Rs 20,922 crore in June.
