How is the Nifty 50 index computed?
The free float market capitalization-weighted technique is used to calculate the Nifty 50 index. Here’s a simplified explanation of how it works:
FORMULA:-
Index Value = (Sum of (Market Capitalisation of Stock * Free Float Factor) / Base Market Capitalisation) * Base Index Value
The free float factor represents the proportion of shares available for trading, and the base market capitalization and base index value are reference values set at a specific base date.
