established as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association" in
1875.

Deepak Mohoni around 1990 while writing market

10. Market capitalization
Market capitalization refers to the value of a
company's outstanding shares
outstanding shares: number of shares issued by the company
& subscribed by the public

Market Capitalization =
Current market price of Stock
X
SharesOutstanding

Let's assume Company XYZ has 10,000,000 shares
outstanding and the current share price is Rs90. Based on
this information and the formula above, we can calculate
that Company XYZ's market capitalization is 10,000,000 x
Rs90 = RS 90,00,00,000/-

11. Free float market
capitalization
efinition:
D
“It is defined as the value of the shares readily available in the
market for public trading excluding the promoters equity
holding through FDI route, holding by private corporate and
holding by employees welfare funds.”
Why free float market capitalization?
1. It depicts the market more rationally.
2. It removes undue influence of government or promoters
share holding, there by giving them equal opportunity for
companies to be in the SENSEX.
3. Almost all the indices over the world are calculated by this
methodology.
4. It gives fund managers more authentic information

12. 
The formula for calculating SENSEX
= (sum of free flow market capital of 30 blue
chip
companies)
X
index factor
Where in:
Index factor= 100/ market capital in 1978-1979
Where 100 is the index value in 1978-1979

13. Example:
Assume the sensex has only two stocks namely SBI and Reliance. total
shares in SBI are 500 out of which 200 are held by govt. and only
300 are available for public trading. reliance has 1000 shares out of
which 500 are held by promoters and 500 are available for trading.
assume price of SBI stock is rs.100 and reliance is rs.200.
then free floating market capital of these two companies,
(300*100+500*200)=30000+100000=130000
assume the market capital during the year 1978-79 was rs.25000
Then sensex =130000*100/25000=520.

14. Sectoral Index
Definition:
”A sectoral index is a measure of the relative value of a group
of stocks in numerical terms. As the stocks within an index
change value, the index value changes. An index is
important to measure the performance of investments
against a relevant market index.”
Explanation:
An Index is used to give information about the price
movements of products in the financial, commodities or any
other markets. Financial indexes are constructed to
measure price movements of stocks, bonds, T-bills and
other forms of investments.
Sectoral indexes are meant to capture the overall behavior of
equity markets. The index is created by selecting a group of
stocks that are representative of the whole market or a
specified sector or segment of the market. An Index is
calculated with reference to a base period and a base index
value.
