These indices are: • Nifty 50 & short duration debt –Dynamic P/E index and • Nifty 50 & short duration debt – Dynamic P/B index. The indices compare the current price-earnings ratio (P/E) or price-book ratio (P/B) with historical P/E or P/B ratio of Nifty 50 in the previous seven years. In these indices, the maximum allocation to equity is 80 per cent and minimum allocation is 65 per cent.
