About the MSCI rejig
On May 05, 2023, MSCI announced that the certain Foreign Inclusion Factor (FIF) changes for Adani Total Gas and Adani Transmission will be implemented in the May 2023 Index Review. Adani Total Gas’s FIF fell from from 0.25 to 0.14 while Adani Transmission’s FIF dropped from from 0.25 to 0.10. “As a result of these changes, these two securities will no longer be eligible for inclusion in the MSCI Global Investable Market Indexes (GIMI) as the companies will not meet the relevant free float-adjusted market capitalization requirements,” said MSCI.
