What is the BSE REITs Index and how does it assist investors?
The BSE has introduced a new REITs Index designed to help investors monitor the real estate sector. Instead of evaluating each company individually, this index acts as a specific benchmark for all listed REITs. It currently includes six components and calculates performance using a capped free-float market capitalization approach. It is important to note that the index's performance does not reflect the actual returns an investor would receive from holding an individual REIT.
