Answer 2

SENSEX, first compiled in 1986 was calculated on a "Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology of 30 component stocks representing a sample of large, well-established and financially sound companies. The base year of SENSEX is 1978-79. The index is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print as well as electronic media. SENSEX is not only scientifically designed but also based on globally accepted construction and review methodology. From September 2003, the SENSEX is calculated on a free-float marke capitalization methodology. The "free-float Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology is a widely followed index construction methodology on which majority of global equity benchmarks are based.

There are 50 Major Shares listed in the Stock Exchange, The fluctuation in the prices of this 50 shares fluctuates the sensex, Means the performance of this 50 shares on the stock market decides the gain/loss of sensex points. u can get details of this 50 shares at : www.nseindia.com
Every Share has its different weightage on the Sensex, Some Major Heavy Weights are RELIANCE,ONGC,INFOSYS,ITC,Hind Lever etc...
The same way Mid cap Index/Bank Index/Metal Index/BSE sensex all the Index fluctuates.
You can call it a thermometer of the Market.
