India's mutual fund AUM hits record Rs 72.2 lakh crore; retail investors & SIPs drive growth
SIP contributions reached a record monthly figure of ₹26,688 crore in May 2025. (AI image) I ndia's mutual fund industry has achieved unprecedented assets under management (AUM) of ₹72.2 lakh crore as of May 2025, showing a 22.5% increase compared to the previous year. The substantial growth stems from increased investor participation and greater adoption of systematic investment plans (SIPs), demonstrating broader financial participation across the nation, according to a report released by Franklin Templeton. The industry structure shows equity-oriented funds comprising more than 60% of total AUM, whilst debt-oriented funds represent approximately 28%. The passive investment segment has expanded significantly, reaching ₹11.97 lakh crore, representing a 25% increase from the previous year and constituting 17% of the total industry AUM. SIP contributions reached a record monthly figure of ₹26,688 crore in May 2025, with aggregate SIP AUM reaching ₹14.61 lakh crore. The industry now maintains 9.06 crore SIP accounts, the report said.

The industry saw substantial capital raising through New Fund Offers (NFOs), collecting ₹1.01 lakh crore in the last 12 months, with equity funds accounting for 97% of the total. The highest net investments were recorded in sectoral and thematic schemes, whilst arbitrage and multi-asset hybrid categories emerged as preferred choices in their respective segments. While equity funds maintained positive net sales for 51 straight months, the equity net sales excluding SIPs and NFOs showed negative trends.

At the state level, Telangana recorded remarkable 32% annual AUM growth, followed by strong performances from Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. The mutual fund sector's expansion outpaced bank deposits, with its proportion to bank deposits rising significantly to 31.2% from 12.6% over ten years.

Shark Tank judge Aman Gupta once said his home was run on his wife's money. Who is Priya Dagar? A look at their 'DDLJ' like love story
The panel of judges on Shark Tank India comprises individuals who have each faced significant adversity before achieving success, and Aman Gupta's story is no different. Known today as the co-founder and chief marketing officer of boAt, Aman walked a challenging path before becoming a household name in the Indian entrepreneurial world. Overcoming Early Financial Struggles In a candid conversation on Prakhar Ke Pravachan, Aman Gupta revisited his difficult years following his exit from a chartered accountancy role. He shared how this phase of his life was marked by financial instability. For years, he earned little to no money and relied heavily on his wife, Priya Dagar, for financial support. Despite the emotional toll, Aman kept pushing forward. He recalled travelling on local buses, strategically boarding them from the first stop to secure a seat so he could catch up on sleep or use the time to study. His dedication to growth meant working long hours—sometimes up to 16 hours a day—and switching between multiple jobs. While his peers seemed to be thriving in their careers, Aman often found himself questioning his decisions. It wasn't until he turned 40 that his professional journey began gaining the momentum he had always aspired to. He openly acknowledged that up until that age, it was his wife who carried the financial burden for the household. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If You Eat Ginger Everyday for 1 Month This is What Happens Tips and Tricks Undo A Love Story Straight Out of a Film While Aman's career graph saw numerous setbacks, his personal life blossomed with romance and resilience. His love story with Priya Dagar is heartwarming and dramatic, almost like a plot from a romantic film. During an interaction with content creator Ranveer Allahabadia, Aman compared his own story to the Bollywood classic Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. When Aman was heartbroken about Priya, his father encouraged him to go after her—mirroring the supportive father figure played by Anupam Kher in the movie. Desperate to see her one last time, Aman searched multiple train stations, trying to find where she was headed. Eventually spotting her name on a train chart, he boarded the train without a ticket, approached her, and simply said hello before walking away. That moment was enough to spark a deeper conversation between them. Since then, they've been inseparable for the last 18 years, standing by each other through thick and thin. Multiple Ventures Before boAt Aman's meteoric rise didn't happen overnight. In the same interview, he admitted that boAt wasn't his first attempt at entrepreneurship. Before this massive success, he had launched five other ventures—all of which failed to take off. However, each setback taught him valuable lessons, ultimately contributing to the brand boAt's current popularity. His Current Financial Standing Today, Aman Gupta enjoys remarkable financial success. According to a report by GQ India, his current net worth is estimated at around Rs 720 crore. From taking buses to save money to building one of India's most recognized audio tech brands, Aman's journey is a testament to perseverance, humility, and the unwavering support of a loving partner. Who Is Priya Dagar? As per her LinkedIn profile, Dagar is a professional who works in the field of venture philanthropy and investments that are sustainable and have a social impact. Earlier, she worked as a senior policy advisor at the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands for energy, environment, and climate change. Her professional journey spans over 15 years, during which she has fulfilled several important roles, such as Research Associate at The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) and Consultant at the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. She holds an MS degree from Symbiosis International University.

Crude oil demand set to decline in 2030: IEA sees first drop since Covid, supply growth to be led by US and Saudi Arabia
Global oil demand will decline slightly in 2030 for the first time since the 2020 Covid shock, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Tuesday, as slower economic growth, electric vehicle adoption, and energy transition efforts reshape the market. In its annual Oil 2025 outlook, the Paris-based agency forecast that global oil consumption would peak at 105.6 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2029 before dipping to 105.5 million bpd the following year. The shift marks a dramatic change from the post-pandemic recovery, when demand surged after a 2020 collapse to 91.7 million bpd during lockdowns, AFP reported. 'Annual demand growth will slow from around 700,000 bpd in 2025 and 2026 to just a trickle over the next several years,' the report stated, adding that major oil-consuming economies will reach peak usage before the end of the decade. The United States, the world's largest oil consumer, is projected to see demand peak in 2025, followed by a decline starting in 2026. China, the top crude importer, is expected to follow suit with a decline beginning in 2028. Middle East demand will peak in 2027, then begin falling in 2028, with Saudi Arabia forecast to post the "single largest decline in oil demand for any country" in absolute terms. The drop comes as the kingdom accelerates efforts to replace oil-fired power generation with gas and renewables. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tired of Your 2BHK Looking the Same? HomeLane Get Quote Undo Meanwhile, the IEA noted that recent oil price spikes — triggered by conflict between Israel and Iran — are not backed by market fundamentals. 'We have a lot of supply in the market. Demand is much weaker than the supply,' IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said, adding that the agency does not expect elevated prices to persist. The IEA, he said, is prepared to act if supply disruptions occur. Despite short-term risks, supply growth is expected to outpace demand through 2030. Global oil production capacity is projected to rise by 5.1 million bpd to 114.7 million bpd, nearly twice the growth rate of demand. Saudi Arabia and the United States together will account for 40% of that capacity increase, the agency said.
