HDFC Life enters Nifty, SBI Cards in Nifty Next
HDFC Life Insurance Company will replace Vedanta in the Nifty50 index on Friday (July 31), as the latter is in the delisting process. SBI Cards and Payments will replace HDFC Life in the Nifty Next 50 index.
SBI Cards will also replace Vedanta in the Nifty 500, Nifty 100, Nifty 200 and Nifty LargeMidcap indices. Vedanta has also been removed from the Metals, MNC, Commodity, Nifty500 Value 50, Nifty High Beta 50 and Nifty50 value 20 indices.
Close to 30 mutual funds, including ETFs, track either the Nifty or the Nifty Next 50. As these index funds need to buy the included stocks, HDFC Life and SBI Cards shares may see some buoyancy in the near term.

The Odisha government holds a 51 per cent stake in OPGC.
