BSE to Join Nifty 50 as NSE Indices Announces Major Rejig
NSE Indices has announced a reshuffle across its major broad-market indices following its semi-annual review. The changes will be effective from September 30, 2026, after the close of trading on September 29.
The biggest change will be in the Nifty 50, where BSE Ltd. will replace Wipro Ltd. Wipro will subsequently move to the Nifty Next 50.
Key Index Changes
- Nifty 50: BSE will be added, replacing Wipro.
- Nifty 100 Additions: BSE, Hitachi Energy India, Polycab India, Vedanta Aluminium Metal and Vodafone Idea will be included.
- Nifty 100 Exclusions: Indian Hotels, Lodha Developers, REC, Shree Cement and United Spirits will exit.

- Nifty 500: The index will see 27 additions and 27 exclusions as part of the broader reshuffle.
What the Nifty Rejig Means for Investors
The changes could lead to increased buying or selling activity in the affected stocks as index funds, ETFs and other passive investment vehicles adjust their portfolios. The inclusion of BSE in the Nifty 50 could also increase its visibility among institutional investors and market participants.
What to Watch Next
Investors will track trading activity in the affected stocks ahead of the September 30 implementation date, particularly BSE, Wipro and the companies entering or leaving the Nifty 100 and Nifty Next 50.
