How is NIFTY CPSE Calculated?

The calculation of the NIFTY CPSE price involves weighing its twelve companies based on a periodically capped free-float market capitalization compared to base market capitalization value. 

The index calculation formula is as follows:

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

Where,

• Current Index Market Capitalization = Shares o/s * IWF * Capping factor * Price 
• IWF (Investable Weight Factors) = 1 as it is based on the market capitalisation method 

NIFTY CPSE index's total return values are calculated every day. Corporate actions like mergers and demergers, will be subject to index evaluations. The Ministry of Disinvestment has appointed CPSE ETF issuer AMC as the authority to modify the index. Any change such as inclusion, exclusion, limitations, and change in eligibility criteria is possible after it makes a formal request.
