KSE100 Index recomposed, new firms to join from October 1

Major market capitalization and sector-based changes to be implemented in the KSE100 Index

The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) has completed the latest recomposition of the KSE100 Index for the review period from March 2024 to August 2024.

The recomposition includes the addition and removal of several companies based on sector rules and market capitalisation adjustments. The changes will take effect from October 1, 2024.

The PSX’s re-composition exercise has led to the inclusion of seven companies into the index and the removal of seven companies. This routine adjustment is conducted to ensure that the index remains reflective of the current market landscape, adjusting for fluctuations in company performances and sectoral trends.

New additions and exclusions in the Index

According to the PSX announcement, the companies that will join the KSE100 Index include Kohinoor Spinning Mills Limited, JDW Sugar Mills Limited, Sazgar Engineering Works Limited, Air Link Communication Limited, Mehmood Textile Mills Limited, Atlas Honda Limited, and Honda Atlas Cars (Pakistan) Limited. These companies have either met the required sector-based or market capitalization criteria to be included.

Meanwhile, Gadoon Textile Mills Limited, Habib Sugar Mills Limited, BankIslami Pakistan Limited, Century Paper & Board Mills Limited, Kohinoor Textile Mills Limited, Shifa International Hospitals Limited, and Saif Power Limited will exit the index due to market capitalisation rules or sector-specific adjustments.

The PSX has confirmed that these changes will come into effect from October 1, 2024. The rationale behind these shifts largely stems from changes in market capitalization and sector-based rules. Companies that have shown growth and performance within their respective sectors are included, while those that have underperformed or fallen below the required thresholds are excluded.
