The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index is a benchmark index that reflects the performance of mid-sized companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) in India. As part of the S&P BSE index series, which includes various indices representing different market segments, the Mid-Cap index focuses explicitly on mid-sized companies that fall between large-cap and small-cap categories in terms of market capitalisation.
The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index comprises the top mid-sized companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
The value of the S&P BSE Mid-Cap index is computed using the free-float market capitalisation-weighted methodology. It entails determining the index value by considering the aggregate market value of all the component stocks. The market capitalisation for each stock is derived by multiplying its prevailing market price by the number of outstanding shares.
The formula for computing the index value is as follows:
Index Value = (Total Free Float Market Capitalization / Base Market Capitalization) x Base Index Value
The weightage of individual stocks within the S&P BSE Mid-Cap is established as a percentage of the overall market capitalisation encompassing all index stocks. Stocks with larger market capitalisations have a more significant impact on the index value. As of January 2024, the weightage of individual stocks in the S&P BSE Mid-Cap index are -
