Nifty Midcap150 Momentum 50 Share Price

The Nifty Midcap 150 Momentum 50 is a strategy-based index, derived from the broader Nifty Midcap 150.

It doesn't just pick midcap companies; instead, it selects 50 stocks showing strong momentum and those stocks that have shown relatively better price performance over a period.

So, rather than tracking the full midcap space, this index focuses on what's currently moving within midcaps.

The Nifty Midcap 150 Momentum 50 follows a momentum-based selection process, so it's not just about size; it's more about which stocks are actually moving.

1. Step 1: Deciding the Universe

   
   Stocks must be part of (or eligible for) the Nifty Midcap 150 at the time of review.

2. Step 2: Basic Eligibility

   
   
   • Minimum 1-year listing history required
   • Stocks should be actively traded
   • Circuit Filter (for non-F&O stocks)

   If a stock hits upper/lower circuit for more than 20% of trading days (last 6 months) it is excluded (basically removing overly volatile/restricted stocks)

3. Step 3: Calculate Momentum Score

   
   Each stock gets a Normalized Momentum Score based on:
   • 6-month return
   • 12-month return

   Adjusted for volatility, so not just raw price jumps

4. Step 4: Rank & Select Stocks

   
   Stocks are ranked based on their momentum score. Among them, the top 50 companies are selected.

5. Step 5: Weight Assignment

   
   Weight is calculated using:
   • Free-float market capitalization x Momentum Score
   • Weight Caps Applied
   • Max weight = lower of 5% OR 5x its base weight

   (keeps things balanced, no single stock dominating)

6. Step 6: Rebalancing & Capping

   
   The index is rebalanced semi-annually. Weight caps are applied during June and December reviews.

The Nifty Midcap 150 Momentum 50 follows a tilt-weighted calculation approach, combining momentum with market size.

1. Step 1: Start with Eligible Stocks

   
   Stocks come from the Nifty Midcap 150 and must meet listing, liquidity, and circuit filter requirements.

2. Step 2: Calculate Momentum Score

   
   Each stock receives a Normalized Momentum Score, based on the period (as mentioned above).

3. Step 3: Select Top Stocks

   
   The top 50 stocks with the highest momentum scores are chosen.

4. Step 4: Assign Weights (Tilt Approach)

   
   Weight = Free-float market cap x Momentum Score
   So, stocks with:
   Higher size and → stronger momentum receive a higher weight

5. Step 5: Apply Weight Caps

   
   Each stock weight is capped at:
   • Lower than 5% OR 5x its base weight
   • Capping is applied during semi-annual reviews

6. Step 6: Index Calculation

   
   
   • The combined weighted performance of all 50 stocks forms the index value.
   • Calculated live during market hours, reflecting the Nifty Midcap 150 Momentum 50 live movement

7. Step 7: Rebalancing & Changes

   
   It happens semi-annually in June and December.
   During review:
   • Stocks in the top 75 ranks may continue
   • New top performers are added
   • Weak momentum stocks are removed

   Special Adjustments:
   If a stock exits the Nifty Midcap 150, it is removed here as well. Quarterly checks ensure SEBI compliance (weight limits, etc.)
