AMFI industry composition report

Tue, 12 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The AMFI industry composition report is a structured breakdown of total mutual fund assets under management (AUM) in India by scheme category, published by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) as part of its monthly industry statistics release. The report allows analysts, researchers, regulators, and financial media to understand how the total industry AUM is distributed across the major categories defined by SEBI ’s 2017 scheme categorisation and rationalisation circular.

SEBI’s scheme categorisation framework

In October 2017, SEBI issued a landmark circular (SEBI/HO/IMD/DF3/CIR/P/2017/114) that mandated a comprehensive rationalisation and standardisation of mutual fund scheme categories across the industry. Before this circular, AMCs used inconsistent category names and definitions, making like-for-like comparisons difficult. The 2017 circular defined 36 specific scheme categories across five broad groups, each with a prescribed investment mandate:

The AMFI monthly AUM data refers to the comprehensive set of assets under management (AUM) statistics that the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) publishes every month for the Indian mutual fund industry. Released within two to three working days of each month-end, the data provides a scheme-level, AMC-level, and category-level breakdown of AUM for all SEBI -registered open-ended and close-ended mutual fund schemes in India. The AMFI monthly AUM release is the single most widely cited data point in Indian personal finance and investment media.

AMFI Quarterly Average AUM (AAUM) data

Tue, 12 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The Quarterly Average AUM (AAUM) is a measure published by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) that represents the average of the daily net assets of a mutual fund scheme (or an AMC’s entire AUM) over each quarter of the financial year. AAUM differs from the month-end AUM point-in-time snapshot and is used for several regulatory and commercial purposes where a smoothed measure of fund size is more appropriate than a single month-end figure.

AMFI SIP contribution data refers to the monthly statistics on systematic investment plan (SIP) activity in the Indian mutual fund industry, published by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) as part of its broader industry data release. The SIP data release is among the most closely watched financial statistics in India, monitored by media, regulators, financial planners, and policymakers as an indicator of the health of retail investor participation in equity markets.
