Edelweiss Asset Management posts record $112.5 crore inflows

In Q2FY27, Edelweiss Asset Management recorded its highest-ever quarterly net equity inflows of $112.5 crore, while equity assets under management (AUM) increased 40% year on year to $1,121 crore as of September 2026. Total AUM was $1,908.7 crore and profit after tax rose to $40 lakh from $20 lakh in Q2FY26.

How large were Edelweiss Asset Management's Q2FY27 equity inflows?

Edelweiss Asset Management reported net equity inflows of $112.5 crore in Q2FY27, its highest-ever quarterly figure and 2.5 times the year-earlier level. The presentation places this record alongside equity AUM of $1,121 crore as of September 2026, linking the quarter's fund flows with a larger equity asset base.

Total AUM reached $1,908.7 crore in Q2FY27, up 18% year on year from $1,610.7 crore in Q2FY26. Equity AUM increased by $317.7 crore, from $803.3 crore to $1,121 crore, which was a larger percentage increase than the growth in total AUM over the same comparison.

The presentation does not disclose the prior-year rupee-equivalent flow figure, fund-category composition or the contribution of market movements to the AUM increase. It does disclose that the $112.5 crore net equity inflow was the highest quarterly amount recorded by Edelweiss Asset Management, making it the central operating measure for Q2FY27.

How has Edelweiss Asset Management's equity AUM changed since September 2024?

Edelweiss Asset Management's equity AUM rose from $618.9 crore in September 2024 to $803.3 crore in September 2025 and $1,121 crore in September 2026. That represents a $502.1 crore increase over the two years displayed in the presentation.

The absolute increase accelerated in the latest 12-month period. Equity AUM added $184.4 crore between September 2024 and September 2025, followed by a $317.7 crore increase between September 2025 and September 2026, or $133.3 crore more than the preceding annual addition.

The September 2026 equity AUM represented about 59% of total AUM of $1,908.7 crore, based on the two figures reported in the Q2FY27 snapshot. The presentation separately reports the 40% year-on-year equity AUM increase and 18% total AUM increase, showing that equity assets grew faster than the overall pool.

Are Edelweiss Asset Management's SIP book and folios growing?

Edelweiss Asset Management's systematic investment plan (SIP) book grew 26% year on year to $6.4 crore in September 2026. The SIP book was $5.1 crore in September 2025 and $3.3 crore in September 2024, a two-year increase of $3.1 crore.

Active folios reached 43 lakh in September 2026, compared with 30 lakh in September 2025 and 20 lakh in September 2024. The latest annual increase was 13 lakh folios, while the two-year expansion was 23 lakh folios.

Between September 2025 and September 2026, active folios increased about 43%, from 30 lakh to 43 lakh, while equity AUM increased 40%, from $803.3 crore to $1,121 crore. The presentation labels these customer measures as active folios and SIP book, but does not provide a split by scheme, investor type or distribution channel.

The September 2024 to September 2026 trend also shows that the SIP book did not expand at a constant absolute rate. It increased by $1.8 crore in the first year shown, from $3.3 crore to $5.1 crore, and by $1.3 crore in the following year, to $6.4 crore, even as active folios added 13 lakh in the latest year.

What happened to Edelweiss Asset Management's quarterly profit?

Edelweiss Asset Management's profit after tax doubled year on year to $40 lakh in Q2FY27 from $20 lakh in Q2FY26. Revenue increased to $1.2 crore from $70 lakh, while operating expenditure, or opex, rose to $70 lakh from $50 lakh.

Revenue rose by $50 lakh, exceeding the $20 lakh increase in opex during the same period. Equity, as reported in the financial performance snapshot and measured as of September, increased to $2.8 crore from $2.5 crore a year earlier.

The supplied snapshot does not break revenue down by fund type, advisory income or fee rate. It reports the Q2FY27 combination of $1,908.7 crore total AUM, $1.2 crore revenue and $40 lakh profit after tax, compared with $1,610.7 crore, $70 lakh and $20 lakh respectively in Q2FY26.

What new product did Edelweiss Asset Management launch?

Edelweiss Asset Management launched Altiva Equity Long - Short SIF during the reported quarter and disclosed special investment fund (SIF) AUM of $137.5 crore. The presentation does not specify the product's launch date, strategy allocation, performance or the share of the stated SIF AUM attributable to Altiva Equity Long - Short SIF.

The launch was disclosed in the same quarterly update as the $112.5 crore record net equity inflow and the $1,121 crore equity AUM figure. It was also reported alongside a $6.4 crore SIP book and 43 lakh active folios as of September 2026, although the presentation does not state whether these measures include SIF investors.

SIF AUM of $137.5 crore was equivalent to roughly 12% of the reported $1,121 crore equity AUM at September 2026, using the two disclosed AUM figures. That calculation is only a size comparison, because the presentation does not define the overlap, if any, between SIF AUM and the equity AUM measure.

Conclusion

Edelweiss Asset Management's Q2FY27 data show that record equity flows coincided with faster growth in equity assets than in total AUM. Equity AUM rose by $317.7 crore year on year to $1,121 crore, total AUM increased by $298 crore to $1,908.7 crore, and profit after tax rose by $20 lakh to $40 lakh. The franchise measures also expanded, with the SIP book at $6.4 crore and active folios at 43 lakh.

The next disclosed development to watch is the progress of Altiva Equity Long - Short SIF after its Q2FY27 launch, with overall SIF AUM reported at $137.5 crore. Subsequent disclosures can show whether the 2.5-times year-on-year increase in quarterly net equity inflows, the 26% SIP-book growth and the rise in active folios continue beyond September 2026.
