By Market DeskBSE Replaces Wipro in Nifty 50 Index: September 2026 Update

BSE to replace Wipro in the Nifty 50 index effective September 29, 2026, driven by free-float market capitalization criteria. Learn about the market implications.

The Nifty 50 index is set for a significant compositional shift, with BSE slated to replace Wipro after the trading session on September 29, 2026.

This change stems from NSE Indices Limited’s semi-annual review, which evaluates companies based on their free-float market capitalization.

Index Restructuring Details

The decision to include BSE and exclude Wipro was determined by specific market capitalization criteria set by NSE Indices Limited during its review process.

  • BSE’s average market capitalization was found to be at least 1.5 times that of Wipro.
  • This robust performance positioned BSE for inclusion within India’s premier equity index.
  • Conversely, other contenders like HDFC Life Insurance and Tata Consumer Products did not meet the stringent inclusion benchmarks.

Market Implications

The impending inclusion of BSE into the Nifty 50 is expected to significantly bolster its market standing among India’s leading companies.

Beyond the flagship Nifty 50, these periodic adjustments by NSE Indices Limited also trigger consequential changes across other NSE indices, reflecting broader market dynamics.

This upcoming index rebalancing underscores the continuous evolution of India’s equity benchmarks, driven by rigorous, data-led assessments of market capitalization.
