What is Nifty 50?

The NIFTY 50, formerly known as CNX NIFTY, is India’s flagship index on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) that reflects the pulse of the equities market. It is a diversified float-adjusted market-capitalization-weighted index of 50 blue-chip companies spanning 13 different sectors of the economy. NIFTY 50 is an abbreviation of the ‘National Stock Exchange Fifty’. The NIFTY index captures almost 66% of float-adjusted market capitalization on NSE as of June 2022.

NIFTY 50 is owned and run by NSE Indices Limited, previously known as India Index Services & Products Limited. This index was launched on April 22, 1996, with the base year set to 1995 and the base value at 1000. Since then, NIFTY 50 share price has breached the levels of 16,000. 

NIFTY 50 is computed in four currencies: Indian Rupee (INR), US Dollar (USD), Australian Dollar (AUD) and Canadian Dollar (CAD). It is reconstituted semi-annually where a maximum of 10% of the total number of companies in the index, i.e., five companies may be added/removed in a calendar year. This ensures that it continues to reflect the changing dynamics of the Indian economy and its financial markets.

NIFTY 50 USD, NIFTY 50 Total Returns Index and NIFTY 50 Dividend Points Index are some of the variants of the NIFTY 50 index. 

This index is ideal for derivatives trading. It is also used for benchmarking fund portfolios and index funds. In fact, exchange-traded derivatives contracts linked to NIFTY 50 are currently being traded at Singapore Exchange (SGX).

How is NIFTY 50 calculated? How are stocks selected for inclusion in NIFTY 50?

The NIFTY 50 share price is determined by the underlying weighted average of 50 stocks on the basis of free-float market capitalization. Free float refers to the shares which are readily available to the public for trading and are not held by promoters.

These stocks are chosen from the universe of NIFTY 100 and need to meet the following eligibility criteria:

  1. Should be an Indian company registered with the NSE
  2. Should be highly liquid, which means its average impact cost should be less than or equal to 0.50% for 90% of the observations for a basket size of Rs. 10 Crores in the past six months
  3. Should have 100% trading frequency in the past six months
  4. Should have a free-floating average market capitalization which is at least 1.5 times greater than the smallest constituent on the index
  5. Should have derivative contracts available on NSE

Even companies that issue shares with Differential Voting Rights are eligible to be included in the NIFTY 50 index.

The index value is calculated as follows –

Index value = Current market value / (Base Market Capital * Base Index Value)

The formula also takes corporate actions such as mergers, de-listing, restructuring, and spin-offs into consideration. The NIFTY 50 index is reviewed semi-annually based on six months of data ending January and July. The replacement of stocks in NIFTY 50 (if any) is implemented from the last trading day of March and September.
