Indian Stock Market Benchmarking & Sentiment FAQs
How is the InvestResearch India Fear & Greed Index calculated?
Our proprietary quantitative model adapts the institutional 5-factor sentiment methodology to Indian equity markets: (1) Market Momentum (Nifty 50 vs 125-DMA, 25%), (2) Market Volatility (India VIX vs 50-DMA, 25%), (3) Market Breadth & Strength (NSE Advances/Declines and 52W High/Lows, 20%), (4) Safe Haven Demand (20-day returns of MCX Gold vs Nifty 50, 15%), and (5) Derivatives Sentiment (Nifty Put/Call Ratio, 15%). Scores range from 0 (Extreme Fear) to 100 (Extreme Greed).
What is GIFT Nifty and why does it trade outside regular Indian market hours?
GIFT Nifty (formerly SGX Nifty) is an index derivative contract traded at the NSE International Exchange (NSE IX) in GIFT City, Gandhinagar. It trades for 21+ hours daily across two sessions (06:30–15:40 IST and 16:35–02:45 IST), providing global institutional investors hedging capability and serving as an early price discovery benchmark for the domestic Indian open.
What does India VIX indicate for domestic retail and institutional investors?
India VIX measures market expectations of near-term volatility over the next 30 calendar days based on the order book of Nifty options. A VIX below 13 signals market complacency, 13–17 indicates standard historical baseline, while readings above 20 highlight heightened panic hedging and elevated option premiums.
How do ETFs differ from regular mutual funds on InvestResearch?
ETFs are listed and traded intra-day on stock exchanges (NSE/BSE) at live market prices with continuous iNAV price discovery. They typically carry significantly lower expense ratios (as low as 0.04% for NIFTYBEES) compared to actively managed mutual funds and do not incur exit loads.
