NSE Launches Nifty REITs & InvITs 90:10 Index
The National Stock Exchange has created a new index called the Nifty REITs & InvITs 90:10 Index.
This index tracks the performance of publicly listed Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) in India.
It includes 13 companies and is designed to give investors a way to track how these trusts are doing.
The index is mostly made up of REITs, which focus on real estate, and a smaller part is InvITs, which focus on infrastructure.
The index is rebalanced every quarter to ensure it stays balanced.
It has shown good returns over the past year and offers a steady income through dividends.
This new index helps investors and fund managers measure the performance of these trusts separately from the broader stock market.
NSE Indices launched the Nifty REITs & InvITs 90:10 Index to track listed REITs and InvITs in India.
The index includes 13 constituents with REITs making up at least 90% of the weight.
It is rebalanced quarterly and has a base value of 1,000 as of April 1, 2021.
The index has shown a 1-year return of 18.29% and a dividend yield of 5.11%.
The index provides a benchmark for investors and fund managers focusing on REITs and InvITs.
