India VIX Volatility index

EOD 29 Oct
15.12-1.13 (-6.93%)Last month

India VIX is not a basket of stocks. It is NSE's measure of the volatility the options market expects in the Nifty 50 over the next 30 days, in annualised percentage points. It has no constituents, P/E or market cap. Higher readings mean traders are pricing bigger swings; a rising VIX is not by itself a signal about which way the market will move.

About these indices

The major broad market-cap indices of the National Stock Exchange, from the headline Nifty 50 to the total-market Nifty 500 and the mid- and small-cap benchmarks. Open any index to see its full constituent list, ordered by market capitalisation, plus a plain-English explainer of what the index measures and how investors use it.

How NSE indices are organised by size

India's broad indices are built from a single ranked universe of NSE-listed companies by market capitalisation. The top 100 companies form the large-cap Nifty 100 (the Nifty 50 plus the Nifty Next 50); companies ranked 101–250 are mid-caps (the Nifty Midcap 150); and companies ranked 251–500 are small-caps (the Nifty Smallcap 250). The Nifty 200 covers the top 200 and the Nifty 500 covers all 500. Bank Nifty is a single-sector index of the largest, most liquid banks. Every one is weighted by free-float market capitalisation, so the biggest constituents carry the most weight.

  • Nifty 50 (50 stocks): India's headline benchmark — the 50 largest, most liquid NSE stocks.
  • Sensex (30 stocks): India's oldest benchmark — the 30 largest, most liquid BSE stocks.
  • Nifty Next 50 (50 stocks): The "Junior Nifty" — the 50 large-caps ranked just below the Nifty 50.
  • Nifty Bank (14 stocks): India's banking benchmark — the most liquid large-cap banks, heavily traded in F&O.
  • Nifty 100 (100 stocks): India's large-cap universe — the Nifty 50 plus the Next 50, in one index.
  • Nifty 200 (200 stocks): The large- and mid-cap universe combined — the top 200 NSE companies.
  • Nifty 500 (500 stocks): India's broadest headline index — large, mid and small caps in one list.
  • Nifty Midcap 150 (150 stocks): India's mid-cap segment — companies ranked 101–250 by market cap.
  • Nifty Smallcap 250 (250 stocks): India's small-cap segment — companies ranked 251–500 by market cap.
