NIFTY Smallcap 100
The Nifty midcap 100 index reflects the midcap segment of the share market. The index includes 100 tradable stocks listed on the NSE. The free float market capitalisation method becomes compatible with computing this index.
The Nifty midcap 100 index launched on July 18, 2005. It can be used for various purposes, including benchmarking fund portfolios and launching ETFs, structured products, and index funds. While the calculation of the index is in real-time, the Nifty midcap 100 is rebalanced semi-annually.
What is the Nifty Smallcap 100 Index?
The Nifty Smallcap 100 Index is a benchmark index that tracks the performance of the top 100 companies from the small-cap segment listed on the NSE. These companies typically have lower market capitalizations compared to mid-cap and large-cap firms, offering higher growth potential but also greater risk and volatility.
The index is designed to measure the performance of small-cap stocks, which are generally characterised by their emerging status and potential for substantial returns. Investors often use the Nifty Smallcap 100 as a barometer for the overall health of the small-cap segment in the Indian equity market. The index is reconstituted semi-annually to reflect changes in the market, ensuring that it remains representative of the small-cap sector.
How is the Nifty Smallcap 100 Index Value Calculated?
The formula to compound the Nifty midcap 100 is as follows:
Free float market capitalisation= Investable Weight Factor (IWF) x Price x Shares Outstanding
You will be able to calculate the index value using this formula:
Index Value= Free float market capitalisation current rate/ Free float market capitalisation of the base index x Base value of the index
The investable weight factor refers to the number of shares accessible for the public to trade generally. These shares are not held by entities or groups with a strategic or a controlling interest in the organisation. When the IWF is high, the proportion of the shares held by the investors under the public category is also high.
The base index value refers to an arbitrary number that indicates the original value of the index. In the case of the Nifty midcap 100 stocks list, the base value of the index is 1000.
