BSE, Sensex and Nifty and Index Funds for the Indian Market

When one of our readers asked for a chart of the Nifty, we wondered how the Sensex and Nifty correlate. Sensex is the index of the BSE (Bombay/Mumbai Stock Exchange) and Nifty is the index of the NSE, the National Stock Exchange of India.

See the Yahoo Answers page here for more background on the Sensex, BSE, Nifty and NSE.

 

BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty comparison for usage of Indian Index Funds

 

To look at the correlation between the two indices, we used Yahoo Finance to compare the Sensex with the Nifty for the last 5 years. See the picture here for a screenshot.


The conclusion is clear that both indices follow very much the same route most of the time. Therefore at Stock Trend Investing, we follow just one of the two indices. Since the BSE Sensex is a little better known outside India than the NSE Nifty, we analyze the trend in the Sensex.

For investors who want to invest in the Indian market and who want to avoid expensive mutual funds, a few index funds are available.

 

Index funds

The iShares S&P India Nifty 50 Index Fund follows as it says the Nifty. Looking at the correlation between the Nifty and the Sensex we have peace of mind and sleep well at night when we make our investments in this fund based on the stock trend analysis of the Sensex.

For those investors who want to invest in a Sensex index fund, Franklin Templeton Investments operates the Franklin India Index Fund - BSE Sensex Plan

They also operate the Franklin India Index Fund - NSE Nifty Plan
 

In our Gold Membership section we have besides the monthly updated trend charts also listed a number of mutual funds that cover the Indian market.

Regardless that our trend charts for the Indian market indicate already for months a positive trend, we can’t stress enough that investing in stocks, index funds and mutual funds always carries risk. Be aware of those. This blog post is just for information and this shall not be seen as investment advice.

Red Alert!!! Exit your long positions

Markets may pull back till 5400 and surge again, be cautious with your longs and buy only when markets pull back. Markets have to break 4700 decisively in September itself, else NIFTY can reach 6536 in next 3 months before crash ensues

Stock market is a place where people can earn money and can loose quick money. Still if we see on the positive side many investors have changed there fortune just by investing money in the stock market. Now the question is how come one can earn money from stock market?

One should make it clear that by any mean stock market is not for gambling. Stock market investments require lot of hard core research. Any investment in share market if done with proper research can be fruitful else no one knows if it’s done based on speculation. Now another question is from where to get all the information. Well for that one can start reading newspaper, following good stock market sites, watch out NSE and BSE closely and use internet as major tool for research off course with many technical analysis tools and fundamental data.

Hi,
Seems like it’s a nice blog. So let us also add something useful in it. Trading in volatile market can be very fruitful also if we follow technical levels closely. It’s a common saying that stock market can change fortune in either way. But now the question is how to earn money from the Indian stock market.

Traders are advised to strictly follow technical analyses and investors can follow fundamental analysis. Many analysts say it’s not wise to follow technical and fundamental analysis together. But we say what the problem is if one does so? As more knowledge will add up things will not have any negative impact.

Hey,
Nice and useful blog. It’s a fact that in India NSE and BSE are most popular and very volatile stock exchanges with many listed shares in it. Again its true no matter how volatile Share market is still investors can mint good profit.

Now the question is how one can earn money via share market trading?

Answer to this is quite simple. We all know share market have many listed stocks and it’s a fact that everyday we have top gainers and top losers in stock market. If our stock timing and stock selection is right we can earn decent profit from stock market.

So again new question is How to select and time stocks?

No matter how good trader or investor you are still one has to rely on market research. Only technical and fundamental research helps, speculation is not worth and no one can earn regular profit by speculations.
