The Nifty India Consumption Index is calculated based on the free-float market capitalisation method, where the index value represents the aggregate free-float market cap of its constituents. Also, the weight of each Nifty India Consumption Index stock is capped at 10%. It means that no stock can have a weightage of more than 10% of the index value. The index can be calculated as per the formula below:

Nifty Consumption Index Formula = Current index market capitalisation  / (Base market cap * Base index value)

Here,

Current free-float market cap = Shares outstanding * IWF * Capping Factor * Price 

Free float = The Amount of outstanding shares available for secondary trading

Investible Weight Factor (IWF) = 1 (because it is based on the market capitalisation)
