The Nifty 50 (also called CNX Nifty) is the flagship benchmark index of the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE). It represents approximately 65% of the total free-float market capitalisation of all stocks listed on NSE. The index was launched on April 22, 1996 with a base date of November 3, 1995 and a base value of 1,000.
It tracks 50 large-cap, highly liquid companies across 13 sectors — Banking & Finance, IT, Energy, Consumer Goods, Auto, Pharma, Metals, Infra, Telecom, and more. Nifty 50 is the most widely used benchmark for Indian equity mutual funds, ETFs, and index funds.
Calculation method: Free-float market capitalisation weighted. Each stock's weight is proportional to its free-float market cap (i.e., excludes promoter holdings). This ensures the index reflects only investable shares available to the public. The index is rebalanced semi-annually every March and September.
The S&P BSE Sensex (Sensitive Index) is the benchmark index of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), India's oldest stock exchange founded in 1875. Sensex tracks 30 well-established, financially sound large-cap companies across key sectors.
Nifty Bank tracks the 12 most liquid large-cap banking stocks on NSE including HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, SBI, Kotak Bank, and Axis Bank. It is the most actively traded NSE index for derivatives (options & futures).

VTechX Hub market data is sourced from Yahoo Finance (≈15 min exchange delay) and refreshed every 5 minutes during trading hours. Data shown outside market hours reflects the previous trading session's closing values.
An index value (e.g., Nifty 50 at 24,500) is a weighted score — not a rupee price. The '+150 pts (+0.6%)' shows today's gain vs. yesterday's closing value. Positive change = market up; negative = market down.
Gainers are stocks with the highest % price increase for the day; losers have the highest % decline. Watching the same stocks appear repeatedly in gainers signals sectoral momentum.
Advance-Decline ratio tells you how many stocks are up vs. down on NSE. More advances than declines = broad market rally. If the index is up but advances are low, the rally is narrow (driven by a few large-caps).
Dark green = strong sector outperformance; light green = mild gains; red = selling pressure. Rotating green from IT → Banking → Auto across days signals sector rotation, a key pattern for swing traders.
High volume on an up-day confirms buyer conviction; high volume on a down-day confirms selling pressure. Unusually high volume with price breakout often signals institutional buying or a news catalyst.
Stocks hitting 52-week highs are in strong uptrends; stocks near 52-week lows may be undervalued or in fundamental trouble. Always check the reason before acting on these levels.

An IPO (Initial Public Offering) is when a private company offers shares to the public for the first time on NSE or BSE. India saw record IPO activity in recent years driven by the tech sector, new-age companies, and SME IPOs.
Key things to evaluate before applying:
Mainboard IPO
Companies with minimum paid-up capital of ₹10 Cr listing on NSE/BSE main board. Subject to full SEBI regulations.
SME IPO
Small & Medium Enterprise IPOs on NSE Emerge or BSE SME platforms. Lower listing requirements, higher risk-reward.
OFS (Offer for Sale)
Existing shareholders (promoters, PE/VC firms) selling their shares in the IPO. Company does not receive proceeds.
NSE trading hours are 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM IST (Monday–Friday, excluding market holidays). Pre-open session runs from 9:00–9:08 AM for order entry and 9:08–9:15 AM for order matching. Post-market session runs from 3:40–4:00 PM. Block Deal window is 8:45–9:00 AM.
Nifty 50 is NSE's benchmark comprising 50 large-cap stocks across 13 sectors; Sensex is BSE's index of 30 stocks. Both use free-float market-cap weighting. Nifty 50 covers a broader 50-stock universe and is widely used by FIIs and futures traders; Sensex is India's oldest index (1979 base) and more commonly referenced in media. They are highly correlated but Nifty 50 is considered more representative.
Bank Nifty (Nifty Bank) tracks the 12 most liquid and large-cap banking stocks on NSE — HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, SBI, Kotak Bank, Axis Bank, IndusInd Bank, and others. It is the most actively traded index for options and futures in India due to its high volatility and liquidity. Traders track it as a proxy for credit growth and RBI monetary policy impact.
Nifty 50 is calculated using free-float market capitalisation methodology. Each stock's weight = (free-float market cap / total index free-float market cap) × 100. Free-float excludes promoter holdings and strategic stakes. The base year is November 1995 with a base value of 1000. NSE rebalances constituents semi-annually (March and September) based on liquidity and market-cap criteria.
GMP stands for Grey Market Premium — the price at which IPO shares trade informally before the company lists on NSE or BSE. If an IPO has a GMP of ₹50 on a ₹200 issue price, the expected listing price is around ₹250. GMP is an unofficial indicator of market sentiment and is not regulated by SEBI. A positive GMP suggests listing gains; negative GMP indicates listing below issue price.

Late-stage growth, profitability roadmap. Prepares for IPO or acquisition. Tiger Global, SoftBank often involved.
FPO (Follow-on Public Offer)
Already-listed companies issuing new shares to raise additional capital from the public.
T+1 settlement means trades are settled one business day after the transaction date. India migrated from T+2 to T+1 rolling settlement starting January 2023. This means if you buy shares on Monday, they are credited to your demat account by Tuesday. T+1 reduces counterparty risk and improves capital efficiency. India is one of the first major markets globally to implement T+1.
A sector heatmap shows the performance of different NSE sectors in a colour-coded grid. Green tiles indicate sectors with positive returns for the day; red tiles indicate negative. Darker green means stronger outperformance; darker red means heavier selling. On VTechX Hub's Finance & Markets page, the heatmap covers 10 sectors: Banking, IT, Energy, Auto, Pharma, Consumer Goods, Metals, Infra, Telecom, and Paints — giving you an instant overview of where the market money is moving.
FII (Foreign Institutional Investors) are foreign entities like hedge funds, pension funds, and sovereign wealth funds that invest in Indian markets. DII (Domestic Institutional Investors) include Indian mutual funds, insurance companies, and banks. FII net buying drives broader market rallies; sustained DII buying provides a floor during FII selling. Both are key market-movers tracked by traders and analysts daily.
