Signals from NSE’s new Ahimsa index: When love for animals meets investments
The National Stock Exchange launched the Nifty 500 Ahimsa Index, the first in India focused on animal-cruelty-free companies, on July 10. This thematic index reflects a growing trend among investors, particularly younger ones, who prioritize ethical and sustainable investment choices. The index aims to provide a platform for investors seeking to align their portfolios with the principles of non-violence, as interest in such indices has surged over the past year.
