Nifty refers to the Nifty 50 Index, which tracks the performance of 50 of the most liquid stocks listed on India's National Stock Exchange (NSE). The Nifty is one of India's most watched stock market indices and is commonly used as a proxy for the entire Indian stock market. The index value is based on the total market value of all the stocks in the index relative to a specific base period. It is computed using a free-float market capitalization-weighted methodology.
The nifty 50 index fund is an investment vehicle that aims to replicate the performance of the Nifty 50 index. It is a type of index fund that holds all the stocks in the Nifty 50 index in the same proportion as they are represented in the index.

The Nifty 50 index fund is considered a low-cost, diversified, and passive investment option for Indian investors. It can be traded like any other stock and held in a Demat account.
