Equity funds see Rs 1059 crore net inflows in December

Four new equity funds were launched in December which together mopped up Rs. 849 crore, shows AMFI data.

The assets under management of the industry fell 7% to Rs. 8.25 lakh crore in December from Rs. 8.89 lakh crore in November largely on account of outflows from liquid and income funds.
