Top 3 categories contribute 30% of AUM

As of Q1FY27, SBI Funds Management managed Rs 12.5 lakh crore across more than 120 schemes, excluding domestic FoFs. The company offers 37 schemes across the equity and hybrid categories, alongside 21 ETFs and 21 index funds. Among large AMCs, SBIAMC has the least concentrated scheme mix, with only one scheme accounting for over 10% of AUM versus 3-4 schemes for key peers. Equity AUM is also more diversified by category, with the top-3 categories contributing 30% of equity AUM, compared with 50% for HDFC AMC and Nippon Life India Asset Management and 35% for ICICI AMC.

According to market veteran Ajay Bagga, “Total Assets Under Management (AUM) for the industry is increasingly driven by a sticky retail base, rather than volatile corporate treasury flows. Captive flows from EPFO are aiding the passive AUM growth as well.”
