NSE Indices Launches Nifty REITs and InvITs 90:10 Index
MUMBAI | July 24, 2026: NSE Indices Limited has introduced the Nifty REITs and InvITs 90:10 Index, a new thematic benchmark designed to track the performance of publicly listed Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) in India.
The newly launched index is expected to provide asset managers, institutional investors and market participants with a dedicated benchmark for evaluating investment strategies focused on REITs and InvITs.
Designed to Reflect India's Listed REIT and InvIT Market
According to NSE Indices, the new benchmark includes all publicly listed REITs and InvITs. Each constituent will be weighted based on its free-float market capitalisation, subject to specified caps intended to maintain diversification within the index.
Under the methodology:
- Individual constituent weight is capped at 33%.
- The combined weight of all REITs will be maintained at a minimum of 90%.
- The combined weight of the three largest constituents cannot exceed 62%.
These measures are intended to prevent excessive concentration while reflecting the overall performance of the sector.
Quarterly Review and Rebalancing
The index has a base date of April 1, 2021, with a base value of 1,000.
NSE Indices said the benchmark will be reviewed, reconstituted and rebalanced every quarter in March, June, September and December to ensure that it continues to represent the eligible investment universe.
Expected to Serve as an Investment Benchmark
The exchange's index services subsidiary stated that the Nifty REITs and InvITs 90:10 Index is expected to serve as a benchmark for active fund managers and may support the development of investment products linked to India's listed REIT and InvIT market.
As investor participation in income-generating real estate and infrastructure assets continues to grow, dedicated benchmarks can help track sector performance more effectively.
