The Bombay Stock Exchange has announced it will replace Wipro in the Nifty 50 index effective 30 September 2026.
The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has officially confirmed that it will replace Wipro Limited in the Nifty 50 index starting 30 September 2026. The change will be implemented during the index rebalancing cycle, which occurs annually in October. BSE’s inclusion follows a review of the index constituents based on market capitalization, liquidity and free‑float criteria.
Wipro, a leading IT services company, will be removed from the benchmark index, while BSE will take its place. The move reflects the evolving composition of India’s top 50 stocks and aims to keep the index representative of the broader market. Investors and portfolio managers will need to adjust their holdings accordingly to maintain index parity.
The BSE’s decision comes after a consultation with the National Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Board of India. The change is expected to have minimal short‑term impact on the index’s overall performance but may influence sector allocations and trading volumes for the companies involved.
