Nifty 50 Companies – List & Sector-wise Weightage

August 19, 2015 by Rajat Sharma 36 Comments

-- UPDATED BASED ON CHANGES EFFECTED ON: 2 APRIL 2018

Here is a breakdown of the 50 companies which constitute the Nifty 50. Over the last decade, while sectoral weight-age has remained largely similar, the constituent companies have constantly changed.

NSE has made the following changes in the composition of Nifty 50 index effective from April 2, 2018.

Removed:

Ambuja Cement
Aurobindo Pharma
Bosch

Added:

Bajaj Finserv
Grasim Industries

Notable Facts: Updated on 2 April 2018

Financial Services and Information Technology contribute 47.87% to the overall weight-age.
There are 5 Pharmaceutical companies. India is amongst the biggest pharmaceutical exporters in the world.
Of all things, cigarettes still have a dominant weight-age in the pie.
No modern day e-commerce businesses finds place in the Nifty. Compare this with the U.S. where Facebook, Amazon, e-Bay and Yahoo are all part of the NASDAQ 100.
The breakup hardly showcases India as a developing economy. Construction and cement put together contribute 5.54%. Energy and power is at 14.96%
7 out of the 10 financial services companies are private sector banks. Consider the fact that in India, there are 24 listed public sector banks and only 16 listed private sector banks. This is significantly different from how things were a decade back.

How do you get this data? When I go to NIFTY I get weightage of only top ten stocks and sector-wise weightage. How can I extract weightage of all stocks listed in NIFTY50 or other indeces?

  My apologies! Got the answer. It is provided as a csv file in the NIFTY website. Thank you anyway.

Hi
Is it possible to get data on NIFTY 50 companies for every year from 2013.
I have looked online and haven’t found any.

Attributing ITC only to cigarettes may not be correct. As per one of the articles on net, more than 50% ITC revenue comes from non cigarette business

  That article is wrong.
