  "summary": "Equity mutual fund gross redemptions rose by 19% in the September quarter, reaching ₹1.25 lakh crore, as investors pulled out funds due to global uncertainty and poor market sentiments. The decline in the Nifty 50 and Sensex during the quarter, coupled with rising crude oil prices and foreign fund outflows, contributed to the heavy redemption. However, redemption in hybrid schemes also increased by 12%, while small-cap funds saw a 14% rise in gross redemption. Despite the market volatility, fund managers remain optimistic about small-cap companies' growth potential due to their business opportunities and earnings growth.",
