Nifty Infrastructure
The Nifty Infrastructure Index is a thematic index launched on August 7, 2007, by NSE Indices Limited. It tracks the performance of 30 companies from key infrastructure sectors such as Power, Telecom, Oil & Gas, Construction, and Utilities, reflecting their contribution to India's economic growth.
The index is based on the free-float market capitalization method, ensuring only publicly traded shares are included, and stock weights are capped at 20% to maintain balance.
Rebalanced semi-annually, the index offers investors exposure to diverse infrastructure companies through ETFs, index funds, and structured products. It is widely used as a benchmark for infrastructure-related investments, providing long-term growth potential with a focus on essential industries.
What is the Nifty Infrastructure Index?
The NIFTY Infrastructure Index tracks the performance of 30 stocks from industries such as Power, Telecom, Roads, Railways, Shipping, and Utilities. Covering sectors like Cement, Electric Utilities, Logistics, Oil & Gas, and Telecom, the index reflects the Indian infrastructure sector. It was launched with a base value of 1000.
The index is reconstituted semi-annually, with individual stocks capped at 20%. Managed by NSE Indices Limited, it is governed by a three-tier structure for oversight and maintenance. A Total Returns variant is available for benchmarking portfolios and launching ETFs or structured products.
How is the Nifty Infrastructure Index Value Calculated?
The NIFTY Infrastructure Index value is calculated using the formula:
Index Value = Current Index Market Capitalization / (Base Free Float Market Capitalization * Base Index Value)
Here, the Current Index Market Capitalization is derived from multiplying outstanding shares by the stock price, Investible Weight Factor (IWF), and a capping factor. The IWF is set to 1, as the index follows the market capitalization method.
The index is rebalanced semi-annually, based on six months of data, with cutoff dates on January 31 and July 31. Any changes to the index composition are implemented from the last trading day of March and September. This ensures the index remains relevant and accurately reflects the infrastructure sector.
Nifty Infrastructure Scrip Selection Criteria
The NIFTY Infrastructure Index calculates its share price by weighting its 30 constituent stocks based on free-float market capitalization, periodically capped relative to a base market capitalization. The index covers 11 sectors, including Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels, Construction, Telecom, Power, and Healthcare.
To be eligible for inclusion, stocks must be listed on the NSE and part of the NIFTY 500. If eligible stocks drop below 10, additional stocks may be selected from the top 800 companies based on average daily turnover and market capitalization. Stocks must also belong to the infrastructure sector, be tradable in the F&O segment, and have a trading frequency of at least 90% in the past six months. Companies must be listed for at least six months, or three months for IPOs that meet the criteria.
Additionally, individual stock weightage is capped at 20%, and new stocks must have a free-float market capitalization at least 1.5 times that of the smallest constituent.
How does Nifty Infrastructure work?
The Nifty Infrastructure Index tracks the performance of 30 companies from key infrastructure sectors like Power, Telecom, Oil & Gas, and Construction. The index is calculated based on the free-float market capitalization method, which considers only the shares available for public trading, excluding those held by insiders. Each stock's weight is capped at 20% to maintain balance.
