History of Nifty Pharma

 

The Nifty Pharma Index was launched on July 1, 2005, with a base date of January 1, 2001, and a base value of 1000. Since its inception, the index has undergone periodic revisions to include companies that meet the eligibility criteria. These revisions ensure that the index remains representative of the pharmaceutical sector's current landscape.

 

Over the years, the Nifty Pharma Index has reflected the performance of the pharmaceutical sector, capturing the impact of regulatory changes, global market dynamics, and domestic developments. The index's historical data provides valuable insights into the sector's growth and challenges.

 

How Does Nifty Pharma Work?

 

The Nifty Pharma Index operates by tracking the performance of its constituent companies. Each company's weight in the index is determined by its free-float market capitalization, which is the product of the company's share price and the number of shares available for trading.

 

The index is reviewed and rebalanced semi-annually to ensure that it continues to reflect the sector's performance accurately. During the review, companies that no longer meet the eligibility criteria may be removed, and new companies that meet the criteria may be added.

How is Nifty Pharma Value Calculated?

  • Determine Free-Float Market Capitalization: Multiply the share price of each constituent company by the number of shares available for trading (excluding promoter holdings and other locked-in shares).
  • Calculate Total Free-Float Market Capitalization: Sum the free-float market capitalizations of all constituent companies.
  • Apply Base Market Capitalization: Divide the total free-float market capitalization by a predetermined base market capitalization and multiply by the base index value (1000).

 

This calculation ensures that the index reflects the market value of the freely tradable shares of its constituent companies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is investing in the Nifty Pharma Index a good idea for beginners?

Answer Field

The Nifty Pharma Index is an index that tracks the performance of the pharmaceutical sector in India. It comprises 15 stocks that are listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and have a high correlation with the global metals prices. Investing in the Nifty Pharma Index can provide exposure to the growth potential of the Indian pharmaceutical industry, which is expected to benefit from the increasing demand for healthcare products and services, both domestically and globally. However, investing in the Nifty Pharma Index also involves some risks, such as:

  • High volatility: The Nifty Pharma Index can be affected by various factors, such as regulatory changes, patent expiries, product approvals, pricing pressures, currency fluctuations, and competition. These factors can cause significant fluctuations in the index value, which can impact the returns of the investors.

  • Sector concentration: The Nifty Pharma Index is a sector-specific index, which means it does not offer diversification across different sectors or industries. Investing in a single sector can expose the investors to the sector-specific risks, which can be higher than the market risks.

  • Tracking error: The Nifty Pharma Index is a passive index, which means it does not actively manage its portfolio or adjust to the changing market conditions. The index funds or ETFs that track the Nifty Pharma Index may not be able to replicate the exact performance of the index, due to various factors, such as fees, expenses, liquidity, and rebalancing⁵. This can result in a tracking error, which is the difference between the returns of the index fund or ETF and the returns of the index.

Therefore, investing in the Nifty Pharma Index may not be a good idea for beginners, unless they have a high risk appetite, a long-term investment horizon, and a thorough understanding of the pharmaceutical sector. Beginners may be better off investing in diversified equity funds or index funds that track broader indices, such as the Nifty 50 or the Nifty 500, which can offer lower volatility, higher diversification, and lower tracking error.

 

How can I buy shares in companies listed on the Nifty Pharma Index?

Answer Field

There are two ways to buy shares in companies listed on the Nifty Pharma Index:

  • Directly: You can buy the individual shares of the companies that constitute the Nifty Pharma Index, through a stock broker or a trading platform. You will need a demat account and a trading account to do so. You will also have to pay brokerage fees, transaction charges, and taxes on your trades. You will have to monitor the performance of each company and decide when to buy or sell the shares. You will also have to bear the risk of selecting the right companies and timing the market.

  • Indirectly: You can buy an index fund or an ETF that tracks the Nifty Pharma Index, through a mutual fund house or an exchange. You will need a demat account and a trading account to do so. You will also have to pay management fees, expense ratio, and taxes on your investments. You will not have to worry about selecting the individual companies or timing the market, as the index fund or ETF will do that for you. You will also benefit from the diversification and lower tracking error of the index fund or ETF.

Can I invest in the Nifty Pharma Index through a mutual fund?

Answer Field

Yes, you can invest in the Nifty Pharma Index through a mutual fund. There are two types of mutual funds that can help you invest in the Nifty Pharma Index:

  • Index funds: These are mutual funds that invest in the same stocks and in the same proportion as the Nifty Pharma Index. They aim to replicate the performance of the index, subject to tracking error. They have low management fees, low expense ratio, and low turnover ratio. They are suitable for passive investors who want to invest in the pharmaceutical sector without taking active bets on individual companies or market movements. An example of an index fund that tracks the Nifty Pharma Index is the ICICI Prudential Nifty Pharma Index Fund.

Can I use the Nifty Pharma Index to plan for retirement?

Answer Field

The Nifty Pharma Index can be used to plan for retirement, but only as a part of a diversified portfolio that includes other asset classes, such as debt, gold, and real estate. The Nifty Pharma Index can provide long-term capital appreciation, as the pharmaceutical sector is expected to grow at a faster rate than the overall economy, due to the rising demand for healthcare products and services, both domestically and globally. However, the Nifty Pharma Index also has some drawbacks, such as:

  • High volatility: The Nifty Pharma Index can be affected by various factors, such as regulatory changes, patent expiries, product approvals, pricing pressures, currency fluctuations, and competition³. These factors can cause significant fluctuations in the index value, which can impact the returns of the investors. This can be detrimental for retirement planning, as it can erode the value of the corpus and affect the ability to meet the retirement goals.
  • Sector concentration: The Nifty Pharma Index is a sector-specific index, which means it does not offer diversification across different sectors or industries. Investing in a single sector can expose the investors to the sector-specific risks, which can be higher than the market risks. This can be risky for retirement planning, as it can increase the chances of losing money and reduce the chances of achieving the desired returns.
  • Tracking error: The Nifty Pharma Index is a passive index, which means it does not actively manage its portfolio or adjust to the changing market conditions. The index funds or ETFs that track the Nifty Pharma Index may not be able to replicate the exact performance of the index, due to various factors, such as fees, expenses, liquidity, and rebalancing. This can result in a tracking error, which is the difference between the returns of the index fund or ETF and the returns of the index. This can be harmful for retirement planning, as it can reduce the returns and increase the uncertainty of the outcome.

    Therefore, the Nifty Pharma Index can be used to plan for retirement, but only as a part of a diversified portfolio that includes other asset classes, such as debt, gold, and real estate. The Nifty Pharma Index can provide long-term capital appreciation, but it also has high volatility, sector concentration, and tracking error. The investors should have a high risk appetite, a long-term investment horizon, and a thorough understanding of the pharmaceutical sector. The investors should also monitor the performance of the index and rebalance their portfolio periodically, to maintain the desired asset allocation and risk-return profile.
