New Delhi, April 11
Gold Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) attracted massive investments in FY 2025, with net inflows of Rs 14,852 crore -- nearly three times higher than the Rs 5,248 crore recorded in FY 2024, according to the data released by the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) on Friday.
The sharp surge in inflows reflects rising investor preference for safe-haven assets amid global economic uncertainty, persistent inflation, and escalating geopolitical tensions.
According to the AMFI, the rally in international gold prices and the weakening of major global currencies against the US dollar further strengthened the appeal of gold as a portfolio diversifier during the financial year.
The overall trend for FY25 shows that gold remains a trusted hedge against market volatility and macroeconomic risks.
With uncertainty still looming over the global economy, experts believe Gold ETFs will continue to be an important part of diversified investment portfolios.
Meanwhile, the mutual fund industry as a whole showed strong performance in March 2025. The total net Assets Under Management (AUM) stood at Rs 65.74 lakh crore, up from Rs 64.53 lakh crore in February.
