Question
The benchmark indices NIFTY 50 and SENSEX follow which
methodology for calculating the weightage of constituent stocks?Solution
Both NIFTY 50 (managed by NSE Indices) and SENSEX (managed by BSE) use a free-float market capitalization–weighted methodology for index calculation. • Free-float market capitalization = Share price × Number of shares available for public trading (excluding promoter holdings, government holdings, ESOPs, etc.). • This ensures that only shares actually available for trading influence the index weight, making the indices more reflective of the market. • Stocks with larger free-float market capitalization carry higher weightage in the index.
