The best-performing Nifty Indices in charts

NSE has a ton of probity indices, 96 of them. Removing a tuft of the repetitive ones, we are still left with over 50. Orchestration unelevated shows their CAGR since inception. All the way from 23% (Midcap150 Momentum50) to -3% (Realty). The Nifty has clocked 14% over 24 years.

Worst drawdowns. Realty fell 93% from peak, IT *gasp* 90% from March 2000 to Oct 2001.

CAGR calculations seem you invest on inception stage and never again. So we moreover see how a monthly SIP would’ve washed-up in each of those indices. The worst 3 SIP performers: Media, Upper Beta 50 and Realty The weightier 3: Midcap150 Momentum 50, Alpha 50, Smallcap250 Quality 50.

Chart shows the difference between SIP XIRR and CAGR. A squint at the Realty alphabetize orchestration highlights why the CAGR is so much worse than what a monthly SIP would’ve done.

Caveats when drawing conclusions from alphabetize data:

  • Inception dates of the various indices compared are different, some go when to 1995, others to 2005, still others have later inception dates. The “youngest” alphabetize in this comparison is Nifty100 Liquid15, with an inception stage in 2010. This could make an alphabetize squint largest or worse than it would had it been virtually for a longer duration.
  • We found (many) issues with http://niftyindices.com data. Garbage values, repeated dates and a few others. We corrected most, but possible some slipped through here.
  • Index inception dates are not publish dates. Most NSE indices were published only recently, presumably the ones that backtested well. This ways some indices probably squint good only with the goody of hindsight.
  • Not all indices are unceasingly investable, The Alpha50 alphabetize is one such example where the Kotak Alpha 50 ETF struggled to add one of the constituents of the alphabetize due to lack of liquidity as the stock hit upper circuits surpassing it turned virtually and started doing the same thing on the way down. So, a upper “model” alphabetize return is not very return.
