    So far in 2024, 12% of investable money has gone into equities. This has been increasing annually since 2014. It was 7% in 2014 and increased to 8% in 2015. In 2016, it fell by a percentage point to just over 8%. Next three years ie 2017-2019.

    The year of the Covid-19 breakout, 2020, climbed to 6%, but fell back to 9% in 2021. In 2022 and 2023, the equity share was 11% and 9% respectively.

    Mutual funds and portfolio management services (PMS) also invest in equities and if these are taken into account, the equity investment number may increase further.

    A chart shared by Kotak shows that the share of mutual funds and PMS/AIFs in household financial assets has been increasing since 2014. In 2024, the share of mutual funds was 11% against 5% in 2014.
