Sector Alpha: stock lists for India, updated every week

Sector Alpha is a free site with 20 stock lists for India. Each section below answers one common search, from dividend stocks to Nifty 50 companies, with its top 5 rows and a link to the full list. Every list is rebuilt each weekend from NSE data.

Stocks by style: large leaders, value and momentum

Indian stock lists are often grouped three ways: the largest companies, value stocks and momentum stocks. This site has one list for each. This week the Nifty 50 has 50 companies, the deep value list 153 and the momentum list 876.

The three styles and the list for each
StyleListCompaniesFirst three on the list
Large leadersNifty 50 companies50HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Reliance Industries (by NSE index weight)
ValueDeep value list153Gulshan Polyols, Atul, Inventurus Knowledge Solutions (in the list's own order)
MomentumMomentum stocks876Bodal Chemicals, Grover Jewells, Kabra Extrusion Technik (furthest ahead first)
  • Large leaders: the 50 companies in NSE's Nifty 50 index, chosen by size and trading.
  • Value: profit up strongly while the share price is still well below its 3-year high.
  • Momentum: beating the Nifty 500 by 5 points or more over 3 months.

A style is a way of sorting the lists, not a view on any stock. Each list shows its own rule and dates on its page. Prices as of 16 October 2026.
