The Indian mutual fund industry has grown nearly tenfold in a decade from ₹8 lakh crore in 2014 to ₹77.51 lakh crore in Aug 2025- poised to cross ₹100 lakh crore.

💡 What’s driving this surge?
-> Increasing financial awareness among households
-> The rising popularity of Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs)

Mutual funds are no longer confined to big cities- investors from Tier 2 and Tier 3 locations are joining in, making wealth creation more inclusive and widespread across India.
