SENSEX :
Calculation:
The BSE constantly reviews and modifies its composition to be sure it reflects current
market conditions. The index is calculated based on a free float capitalisation
method, a variation of the market capitalisation method. Instead of using a
company's outstanding shares it uses its float, or shares that are readily available for
trading. As per free float capitalisation methodology, the level of index at any point of
time reflects the free float market value of 30 component stocks relative to a base
period. The market capitalisation of a company is determined by multiplying the price
of its stock by the number of shares issued by of corporate actions, replacement of
scrips, etc
The Prevention of Money Laundering Act

The Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 (PMLA) forms the core of the legal
framework put in place by India to combat money laundering. PMLA and the Rules
notified there under came into force with effect from July 1, 2005 . Director, FIU-IND
and Director (Enforcement) have been conferred with exclusive and concurrent
powers under relevant sections of the Act to implement the provisions of the Act.
The recruitment drive began soon after the government decided to grant greater execution powers
and a larger oversight role against potential investment fraud that would require Sebi to have a much
larger workforce.
Besides, the capital market regulator is opening local offices on a pan-India basis for enhanced
investor awareness and services that require additional manpower.
An independent consultant recently suggested Sebi increase its workforce to about 1,000 employees
in order to meet future manpower requirements to take full ownership of regulatory oversight of all
investment schemes besides staff requirement in regional offices as well as local offices
