45 new stocks in F&O segment expected to trigger churn in Nifty, Sensex

LIC, Zomato, Dmart among largest firms in the list of 45 stocks

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has announced the inclusion of 45 new stocks in the futures and options (F&O) segment, effective November 29. This marks the first expansion in the derivatives segment since January 2022, expected to trigger churns in several benchmark indices, including the NSE’s Nifty 50 and the S&P BSE Sensex.

 

Among the new entries, the largest by market capitalisation are Life Insurance Corporation of India, Avenue Supermarts (DMart), Adani Green Energy, Zomato, and Jio Financial Services.

 

Despite meeting size criteria, some stocks have been excluded from the Nifty and Sensex due to a lack of derivatives inclusion.
