capitalization on the National Stock Exchange (NSE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Nifty Next 50 index fund holds these companies in the proportion as the Nifty Next 50 index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These companies are below the 50 largest companies in the Nifty 50 and are often called the Nifty Junior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nifty Next 50 index funds copy the index. Do not pick individual stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore the Nifty Next 50 index fund holds the companies in the same weights and only changes when the index changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The index is a large\u2011cap index. Its companies are on the smaller side of that group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This gives the Nifty 50 index fund a different sector mix and a different level of volatility compared with the Nifty 50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_the_Nifty_Next_50_index_contains\"><\/span>What the Nifty Next 50 index contains<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Feature<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Detail<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Companies<\/td><td>The 50 companies in the Nifty 100 that are not in the Nifty 50 and are ranked 51st to 100th by market capitalization<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Weighting<\/td><td>Free\u2011float market capitalization, which counts only shares that are available for public trading.
