The Nifty 50 is the benchmark equity index of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India, comprising 50 of the largest and most liquid Indian companies across various sectors.
It is calculated using the free-float market capitalization method, where the index value reflects the total market value of its 50 constituent stocks, adjusted for shares not available for public trading.
The Nifty 50 serves as a key barometer for the Indian equity market and economy, helping investors gauge market sentiment, understand trends, and benchmark their investment portfolios.
The constituents of the Nifty 50 are typically reviewed semi-annually, usually in March and September, to ensure they remain representative of India's top companies.
