New Delhi/Dec 11: Inflows into gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in India saw a sharp slowdown in November, nearly halving compared to the previous month. The segment recorded inflows worth around $379 million, marking a 55% decline month-on-month. Despite the steep drop, November still continued the positive streak for gold ETFs, making it the sixth consecutive month of inflows in 2025. Analysts said the moderation reflects short-term profit booking after a sustained rise in gold prices during the festive and global uncertainty-driven rally.
Experts noted that while monthly inflows eased, the overall assets under management (AUM) across gold ETFs continued to rise, touching nearly ₹1.6 trillion by the end of November — more than double the levels seen just six months earlier. Market watchers believe the long-term interest in gold remains strong, as investors continue to view the metal as a hedge against market volatility, inflation concerns, and geopolitical risks. The slowdown, they added, is temporary and largely driven by tactical adjustments rather than a dip in sentiment.
