The inclusion will take effect from October 19 this year, according to a release by India Index Services and Products Ltd (IISL), a subsidiary of NSE Strategic Investment Corporation.
Aditya Birla Nuvo, the holding company of Aditya Birla Group, will be excluded from the index.
“The Index Maintenance Sub-Committee has decided to make the replacement on account of proposed scheme of arrangement for transfer by way of a demerger of Madura Undertaking of Aditya Birla Nuvo to Pantaloons Fashion & Retail,” the release said.
