Nifty Midcap Select

The Nifty Midcap Select is a prominent stock market index consisting of highly liquid shares from a select group of mid-cap companies in India. It captures the performance of 25 stocks chosen from the Nifty Midcap 150 Index based on market capitalization and daily trading activity. 

Covering various sectors, the index provides investors with insights into top mid-cap companies driving the Indian economy. Additionally, futures and options contracts are actively traded with this index as the underlying asset, making it a valuable tool for traders and investors alike. Following the Nifty Midcap Select is ideal for those looking to monitor and invest in India's mid-cap segment.

What is the Nifty Midcap Select Index?

The Nifty Midcap Select Index, launched on September 14, 2021, by NSE Indices Limited, tracks the performance of 25 liquid midcap stocks chosen from the Nifty Midcap 150 Index. Stocks are selected based on market capitalization, average daily turnover, and the availability of derivative contracts.

 The index covers 13 sectors, including Capital Goods, Financial Services, IT, and Healthcare. It serves as a benchmark for fund portfolios and supports the launch of ETFs, index funds, and structured products. Futures and options on the index are also available for hedging.

How is the Nifty Midcap Select Index Value Calculated?

The Nifty Midcap Select Index is calculated in real-time by weighting its 25 constituent stocks based on free-float market capitalization relative to a base value. The formula used is:

Index Value = (Current Index Free Float Market Capitalisation / Base Free Float Market Capitalisation) * Base Index Value.

Here, the free-float market capitalization considers shares outstanding, the Investible Weight Factor (IWF), capping factor, and current stock prices. The index is reviewed semi-annually, in January and July, based on six months of data, with changes implemented on the last trading day of March and September. Stocks are replaced if they no longer qualify for futures and options (F&O) trading or due to corporate actions.
 

Nifty Midcap Select Scrip Selection Criteria

To be included in the Nifty Midcap Select Index, stocks must first be part of the Nifty Midcap 150 and be available for trading in the NSE F&O segment. The index will compulsorily include the top 10 stocks from the Reranked Universe based on their 6-month average full market capitalization.

New securities are added if their 6-month average float-adjusted market capitalization is at least 1.5 times that of the smallest constituent. Stocks will be excluded if they are not part of the Reranked Universe or if their rank falls below 30 based on market capitalization. If eligible stocks fall below 20, the universe will be expanded to the top 60, and then the top 70, if necessary.
 

How does Nifty Midcap Select work?

The index is reviewed semi-annually, in January and July, based on six months of data. Any changes, including stock replacements, are implemented on the last trading day of March and September. If a stock is excluded from the F&O segment or experiences a significant drop in market capitalization, it may be replaced. The index serves as a key tool for benchmarking, ETFs, and index funds, and also supports F&O contracts for hedging.
 

What are the Benefits of Investing in the Nifty Midcap Select?

The index provides an extra opportunity for options traders, with expiries on Wednesdays, complementing Nifty 50, Nifty Bank, and Nifty Financial Services expiries on other weekdays. Moreover, no transaction charges are levied on F&O contracts for the index until September 30, 2023. As a growing benchmark for the mid-cap segment, the index is attracting increasing attention from investors.
