The Indian stock markets are among the oldest in Asia and have attracted millions of investors over the decades. However, the pace of investing and the number of new investors and traders joining the markets today is unprecedented. For such high volumes of trades and high volatility of the markets, there was an acute need for proper regulations and a code of conduct to be followed by each participant from the very start. Viewing this need, the Government of India had set up SEBI and other regulatory bodies to govern the investing and trading of stocks and other related instruments on the stock exchanges. These regulatory bodies also decide the mechanism or the basis for which stocks can be listed on the exchanges or may be removed later.
Recently, it was announced that the NSE would be undergoing an alteration of the available stocks on their various indices. Below is the list of incoming and outgoing stocks and the broad mechanism followed by the stock exchange to readjust their stock lists.
The list of stocks that are available on various indices on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) is based on the underlying methodology for each such index. As per the policy of SEBI, this list is to be reviewed every 6 months. The latest revision is scheduled on September 30. The conditions or situations that warrant the change in the list of stocks are detailed below.
Furthermore, the exchange will have to provide a notification for the change in the broad market indices at least 4 weeks prior to the scheduled change. In the case of other indices, a notice of 5 working days has to be provided to all the relevant market participants in the manner as directed by SEBI. Such notice shall be applicable for both scheduled or additional readjustment of the indices.
