These investment vehicles collected around Rs 55,000 crore in 2020-21, reaching their net assets to Rs 1.64 lakh crore.

The funds were collected via preferential issue, institutional placement, initial offer, and rights issue. Now, the eligibility criteria for the Nifty pharma index has been updated.

In the semi-annual review records Cholamandalam Investment Fin Co, Bank of Baroda, Jindal Steel & Power, PI Industries and Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL) would be included in the Nifty Next 50 index.

The index managing sub-committee of NSE Indices has decided to make modifications in the eligibility criteria of Nifty indices and the replacement of stocks in various indices. These changes would be valid from 30 September 2021.
