Current characteristics of Nifty India Digital Index based on its index construction methodology represents the digital change agent companies and digital enablers. Digital transformation is still in the early stages and we expect more new age companies to achieve scale, raise capital and get listed over the next 3-5 years. “

“As this transformation unfolds and the new age companies become a more prominent part of the economy and equity markets, we see the emergence of new hybrid segments like consumer tech, fintech, edtech, etc. The portfolio, over a period, would have adequate representation to Digital enablers as well i.e. IT Services/ Cloud transformation / SaaS companies. The Indian IT services companies which are ahead in digital and cloud capabilities will also be an important part of this segment along with companies which are in the automation/robotics/IoT space”.
