Top MF distributors earned gross
commission of Rs.8,500 crore commission in FY
2017-18
Commission paid to the top Mutual Fund distributors shows that
India’s top 979 mutual fund distributors, which includes banks, NDs and IFAs,
earned revenue of Rs.8,534 crore in 2017-18, a growth of 71% over 2016-17 when
the top distributors earned Rs.5,000 crore.
AMFI data shows that the
number of distributors falling under the purview of SEBI criteria of ‘top
distributors’ has increased to 979 in 2017-18 from 732 in 2016-17.
These distributors manages AUM of Rs.9.21 lakh crore that is 43%
of the overall industry AUM. This also indicates that these distributors earned
0.93% of the assets under advisory.
One of the key reasons for the increase in commission payout is
due to the increase in total equity AUM. The total equity AUM including ELSS,
balanced fund and equity ETFs of the industry has gone up from Rs. 6.73 lakh
crore in April 2017 to Rs. 10.68 lakh crore in March 2018.
In fact, equity funds including pure equity, ELSS, equity ETFs and
balanced funds witnessed 117% growth in net inflows last fiscal i.e. from
Rs.1.13 lakh crore in 2016-17 to Rs.2.85 lakh crore in 2017-18, an addition of Rs.1.54
lakh crore.
Another reason could be mark to market gain. The BSE Sensex inched
up by 3264 points, or 11%, to close at 33174 points last fiscal.
