Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹845.33Cr in April - June 2026. Size matters most where the mandate is narrow — a large small-cap or a very large flexi-cap book is harder to move without moving the price.
Net flow is an estimate: AMFI publishes a quarterly average AUM, not a closing balance, and it covers every plan and option of this scheme together, so it is a read on direction and rough size rather than a cash-flow statement.
AMC Profile
Union Mutual Fund is sponsored by Union Bank of India, and was branded Union KBC until its Belgian joint-venture partner exited. It runs a small equity, hybrid and debt line-up.
