In May 2025, Gold ETFs received inflows of around Rs 291 crore from an outflow of Rs 5.82 crore in April. An expert is of the opinion that the renewed traction in May signals a gradual return of investor interest, likely driven by resilient gold prices and sustained global uncertainties that reinforce gold’s appeal as a strategic hedge.The uptick also shows that investors are regaining confidence in gold, as it continues to offer stability amid mixed signals from equity and bond markets,” said Nehal Meshram, Senior Analyst – Manager Research, Morningstar Investment Research India.
“Furthermore, the relative stability in gold prices through May have provided a more attractive entry point for investors looking to build or rebalance allocations toward safer assets,” Nehal added.
