Realised profits refer to the gains made by investors when they sell securities at prices higher than their purchase prices. Unrealised profits on the other hand represent the increase in value of securities that investors still hold and have not yet sold. ()

Kamath’s remarks came a day after the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) reported the highest monthly inflows ever recorded for equity mutual funds in May. This surge was largely driven by investments in new fund offers (NFOs) and thematic schemes. Kamath's announcement underscore the significant progress made by retail investors who are increasingly turning to equity markets as a means of wealth creation.
