Stock market indices

322 Nifty and BSE indices. An index follows a fixed list of companies, so its return shows how that part of the market has moved; its P/E is what the market pays for a year of their profit.

How the sectors moved

The sector indices ranked by their return, then the path each took from a common start.

Sector indices by their return

Sector indices from a common start

Highest IT, +12.9%; lowest Metal, −13.7%, 23 Sep 2026 to 23 Oct 2026.

Every index

Most followed first: how many mutual funds use the index as their benchmark. A bond or rate index holds no companies, so it has no P/E or dividend yield; a return needs that much history, so a recent index shows none.
