Nifty 50 FAQ's

S&P CNX Nifty popularly known as Nifty is a well-diversified 50 stocks index of companies from 14 sectors of the economy. These stocks are considered to be the barometers of the economy and are market leaders in their own sectors.

Nifty 50 is a professionally maintained Index by India Index Services and Products Ltd. (IISL), which is a joint venture between NSE and CRISIL. IISL has a marketing and licensing agreement with Standard & Poor's (S&P), who are world leaders in index services.

For a company to be listed in Nifty, they are required to satisfy the unique eligibility criteria set by NSE. These criteria include:

  1. Liquidity: Liquidity refers to how quickly and easily a stock can be bought or sold without affecting its price. Simply put if you are able to get a large quantity of a stock at the currently quoted price then the stock is liquid. NSE measures liquidity in terms of Market impact cost, the costs faced when actually trading an index stock. For a stock to be included in the NIFTY 50, it should have traded at a market impact cost less than or equal to 0.50% during the last six months and for a trade worth minimum Rs. 10 crores.

  2. Float adjusted market capitalization: Free-float market capitalization is a measure of the market cap of a particular company that is available for trading.
    It is calculated by multiplying the share price by number of shares readily available for trade. So it excludes locked-in shares including shares held by promoters. Simply put it is. For inclusion in the Nifty, the float adjusted market capitalization of the particular company should be at least 1.5 times the average free-float market capitalization of the present smallest index component.
  3. Trading frequency: The Company should have traded every day in the last six months.

  4. Listing history: The Company should have a listing history of at least 6 months. A company that has just been listed through an IPO should fulfil all the Nifty inclusion criteria’s for a 3 month period.

  5. Company should be allowed to trade in futures and Options segment.

Nifty is computed using the free float adjustment methodology.

Market capitalization = Share Price x Number of shares.

Free Float Market Capitalization = Share Price x Shares Outstanding*IWF.

Index Value = Current Market Value / Base Index Value.

*IWF or Investible Weight factor = (Shares Outstanding – Locked-in Shares)/ Shares Outstanding.

Base Index Value = Base Market Capital * 1000.

Base Market capital = The average market price of a group of securities at a specific time. Used for the purpose of indexing.

The index value is computed on a real-time basis every day.

You can invest in Nifty through Nifty index funds or the Nifty ETF. This enables you to invest in all the 50 companies.

Nifty ETF have higher liquidity and slightly lower fees as compared to the Nifty Index Funds making them better investment choice

Inflation + returns - Index funds have consistently generated inflation beating returns over the long term. Coupled with low costs it becomes excellent value for investors.

Diversification – It deploys the investment in multiple companies and sectors thereby reducing risk compared to investing in a single or small set of companies. Over time Nifty 50 replaces the underperforming companies at a market level with performing one.

Wide market presence – Nifty 50 Index funds are quite popular in India and have a substantial market presence.

Low cost - These funds have lower operating expenses as fund managers simply need to replicate the index.

It is generally agreed that a Nifty PE ratio of less than 18 means an undervalued market and a time to invest more. However this cannot be predicted and changes dynamically. So, we have found that investing in index funds in a disciplined manner through monthly SIPs and investing lumpsum amounts on every correction will improve your returns.

There are two important factors to look at while choosing an index fund – Liquidity and expense ratio. Choosing a fund with high liquidity, allows you to buy and sell with no impact cost. Choosing a fund with low expense ratio or fees improves your returns. Currently, the ICICI Nifty Index fund is popular.

Most index funds will give you similar returns. Thus, looking at past returns will be futile.

Not all stocks in the Nifty 50 index are Blue chips. As stocks are selected in the index using an algorithm, often stocks that are most popular make their way into the index. Some of these companies might lack traits of Blue-chip stocks like dependable earnings, stable dividends, and industry leaders.

Investment in Nifty 50 stocks should be with an aim to build your Core portfolio – a portfolio that is held for the long term and form the backbone of your investments. It is best built of industry leaders and highly efficient companies with low impact from an economic slowdown, competition, or governance issues. They are also less volatile, i.e. lower corrections and quicker return to fair prices. This consistency in return will help you stay invested in the equity market.

Not all Nifty 50 stocks fit this bill and just selective investment is warranted. For details read, ‘ Building a Portfolio with Core and Booster Stocks
