Gold ETF Inflows Rise 71% in September, Nine-Month Total Exceeds 2025
Gold ETFs saw a 71% increase in net inflows to around Rs 4,451 crore in September 2026, marking the highest monthly inflow of the fiscal year, despite a dip in gold prices. Experts attribute this surge to geopolitical tensions, inflation concerns, and gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset. Additionally, cumulative inflows for the first nine months of 2026 have surpassed the total inflows of 2025. Silver ETFs also experienced increased investments during September, though at lower levels than gold.
