The mutual fund SIP stoppage ratio eased for the second consecutive month in June to 91.23% against a stoppage ratio of over 95.46% in May and over 100% for two consecutive months before that. In April, the SIP stoppage ratio was 101.14% whereas in March it was 101.06%.

The number of SIPs discontinued/ tenure completed in June were recorded at 50.64 lakh whereas the number of new SIPs registered in the same period stood at 55.51 lakh.

What is the SIP stoppage ratio?

The SIP stoppage ratio is the number of discontinued SIPs compared to the number of new registered SIPs. If this ratio crosses 100% then it indicates that more mutual fund SIPs are being stopped than the ones started.

However, one must keep in mind that stoppage ratio also includes those SIPs that have expired. Besides, investors may have simply switched from one SIP to another as part of their portfolio reshuffle.

SIP contributions touched a record Rs 31,781 crore, reflecting growing investor confidence and the increasing adoption of disciplined, long-term investing, said Venkat Chalasani, Chief Executive, AMFI.

SIP assets stood at Rs 17.70 lakh crore in June 2026, constituting 21.5% of the industry's AUM. The number of contributing SIP accounts stood at 9,78,29,912 in June 2026. Mutual fund folios are at 27,85,99,182 crore as of June 2026 with 20.31 lakh net folios being added during the month, taking the total to 27.86 crore, up 0.7% from 27.66 crore in May.

Navneet Munot, MD and CEO of HDFC AMC, said that monthly SIP contributions staying above Rs 30,000 crore remain one of the most significant indicators of India’s investment journey and a decade ago, they were just over Rs 3,000 crore. This nearly tenfold increase reflects not just scale, but a structural shift in household financial behaviour.

Munot further said that even through periods of market volatility, millions of Indians have continued investing with discipline, looking beyond daily headlines and this steady flow of domestic savings has become a strong anchor for the capital markets and a powerful testament to the financialisation of savings in India.

The retail MF AUM (equity + hybrid + solution oriented schemes) stood at Rs 49,41,096 crore for the month of June 2026 as against Rs 47,91,061 crore in May 2026. The retail folios (equity + hybrid + solution oriented schemes) are at 21,22,59,046 for June 2026 and 21,10,12,873 for May 2026.
