What is the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index?

Though the Bombay Stock Exchange may be the oldest stock exchange in the country, what makes it stand out are the indices that it introduced to make the lives of traders easier. Innumerable indices help simplify trading for even the traders that are new to the scenario. 

Currently, the two largest stock exchanges in the country are the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange. Most companies hold stocks in both of these, thus, expanding their avenues. 

The BSE divides companies based on their free-float market capitalisations and the number of liquid shares offered. They are divided into LARGECAP, MIDCAP and SMALLCAP. The stocks for the LARGECAP companies are more reliable due to their financial stability, but they are often pretty expensive and not easy to buy for some traders. 

BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index is a rules based index that measures the performance of the first 60 companies in the S&P BSE SMALLCAP. These companies also hold the greatest amount of liquid shares amongst all other SMALLCAP companies. The value of the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index depends on the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT share price. This needs to be closely observed as it is a very dynamic index that keeps on changing.

How is the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index calculated?

To calculate the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index, you need to first know the criteria for the division of the companies into LARGECAP, MIDCAP and SMALLCAP. The segmentation is based on the 85-15-5 segment rule, with the numbers representing the percentage of the total market cap of BSE ALLCAP. The further division is as follows- 

  • LARGECAP companies have a market cap of 20,000 crore INR or more. 
  • MIDCAP companies have a market cap between 20,000 and 5,000 crore INR.
  • SMALLCAP companies have a market cap below 5,000 INR. 

As mentioned earlier, the value of the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT index will depend on the value of the BSE SMALLCAP SELECT share price.
