Mutual funds' NFO collection surges 4 times to Rs 22,000 cr in Sept qtr

Mutual funds' collection through new fund offerings (NFOs) surged nearly four times to Rs 22,000 crore in the July-September period this fiscal compared to the preceding quarter as 48 new schemes hit the market. Going forward, more NFOs can be expected in the coming quarters as several AMCs become operational and offer similar and differentiated products to the equity and debt investors, Gopal Kavalireddi, Vice President of Research at FYERS, said. "With investors firmly believing in the India growth story and the emergence of new segments in organised space, more and more companies are seeking funds through primary and secondary market offerings. "To support these listed businesses, AMCs would be interested in launching more schemes across equity and hybrid categories, especially in the mid-, small-, and micro-cap market capitalisations," he added. During the quarter that ended in September 2023, 48 schemes were launched, which were cumulatively able to garner Rs 22,049 crore at t

MF houses go slow on NFOs, file draft papers for 59 schemes in Apr-Jul

With a wide array of existing mutual fund schemes, asset management companies are going slow on launching new ones in a highly competitive landscape as they filed draft documents for 59 new fund offerings (NFOs) in the first seven months of the year. In comparison, draft papers for 70 NFOs were filed in the year-ago period. In 2022, a total of 228 new schemes were floated against 140 in 2021, industry data showed. Moreover, the remaining months of 2023 are not expected to see NFO numbers anywhere close to those of 2022 or 2021, SAS Online founder and CEO Shrey Jain said. The reasons behind the decline in NFOs could be a combination of the factors as the mutual fund industry's dynamics are influenced by various internal and external factors. "AMCs may be concentrating on managing and promoting their existing schemes, rather than launching new ones. This strategy allows them to maximise the returns for existing investors and maintain stable assets under management," Jain said. Also,

SBI Mutual Fund raises Rs 3,600 crore through dividend yield NFO

SBI Mutual Fund on Monday said it has mobilised around Rs 3,600 crore in its New Fund Offer (NFO) for a dividend yield fund offering, giving it a market share of over 25 per cent in the segment. The fund house collected the amount on the back of a strong promotion in regional languages, with around 1.23 lakh applications from 70 per cent of pin codes in the country and around 40,000 new investors. The NFO of SBI Dividend Yield Fund was opened during February 20 to March 6, and it will reopen for subscriptions on March 17, the company said in a statement.

The fund house believes that the category has a lot of potential and dividend yield funds should be part of an investor's portfolio, especially those looking to invest directly in equity or looking for a regular cash flow from dividends.
