Answer»

The computational methodology followed for construction of stock market indices are:

1. Free Float Market Capitalization Weighted Index, 

2. Market Capitalization Weighted index and the 

3. Price Weighted Index

The Free float market capitalization is calculated in the following manner:

Free Float Market Capitalisation = Issue Size * Price * Investible Weight Factor

The Index in this case is calculated as per the formulae given below:

Index = \(\cfrac{Free\,float\,current\,market\,capitalization}{Free\,Float Base\,Market\,Capitalization}\) *Base Value

The India Index Services Limited (IISL), aa subsidiary of NSE Strategic Investment Corporation Limited, introduced the free float market capitalization methodology.
