BSE Index Services Pvt. Ltd, a subsidiary of Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), introduced the BSE All Derivative Stocks Index to monitor BSE 500 Index constituents involved in derivative trading. This index is designed for passive strategies like ETFs and index funds, as well as for benchmarking PMS strategies and fund portfolios.
Ashutosh Singh, MD and CEO of BSE Index Services Pvt. Ltd, highlighted that this index signifies a significant change in how market benchmarks are structured in India. It dynamically reflects the derivative-eligible equity universe, adapting to the evolving depth, liquidity, and maturity of India’s capital markets.
The BSE All Derivative Stocks Index calculates constituent weights based on float-adjusted market capitalization and momentum score, with a 10% cap on individual stock weight. Established with a base value of 1,000 on June 23, 2014, it undergoes semi-annual reconstitution in June and December.
Investors now have access to a wider range of market opportunities, enhancing their investment strategies with this new addition to BSE’s index offerings. In a separate initiative, BSE had partnered with the Department of Posts in December 2025 to facilitate mutual fund product distribution through India Post’s network.
