NEW YORK, NY – DWS, a leading European asset manager with global reach, today announced the launch of the Xtrackers Nifty 500 India ETF (NASDAQ: IND) (the “Fund”), giving investors broad access to the Indian equity market as the country becomes increasingly recognized as a growing global economic force. The Fund is available for trading on NASDAQ starting November 25, 2025.
The Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance of the Nifty 500 Index, which measures the equity performance of the top 500 companies traded on the National Stock Exchange of India (the “NSE”) based on full market capitalization that meet certain eligibility requirements. It includes representation from the large, mid and small-cap segments of the Indian equity market. Together, these companies account for 90.9% of the full market capitalization and 79.9% of the average daily turnover of NSE’s equity universe of over 2,100 stocks (as of September 30, 2025).
“India is already one of the largest economies in the world,” said Salvador Gomez, Head of Xtrackers Sales Americas. “With its robust growth, the country now accounts for a significant portion of the key emerging markets indices. The launch of this ETF presents a compelling opportunity for investors to engage with India’s expanding global influence and rising prominence within equity benchmarks.”
“In our view, India is now too big for investors to ignore. By including mid and small-cap stocks in addition to large-cap stocks, the Xtrackers Nifty 500 India ETF seeks to capture India’s larger growth story,” said Henry Wu, Head of Xtrackers Products U.S. “Moreover, in addition to strong equity performance over the past 25 years, the Indian stock market is now more diversified, which generally translates to lower concentration risks relative to other emerging markets.”
Mr. Aniruddha Chatterjee, CEO of NSE Indices, said: “India is currently one of the fastest growing major economies in the world. The listing of the first U.S.-based ETF tracking the Nifty 500 Index will allow investors to participate in India’s dynamic growth trajectory. The Nifty 500 is a broad-based benchmark that offers comprehensive exposure across the Indian equity market, combining the stability of large-cap companies with the high-growth potential of mid- and small-cap segments. It can provide a well-balanced and forward-looking approach for investors seeking global diversification and long-term growth in India.”
