How Thematic Rotation Works

What themes are included?

NSE thematic and factor indices (e.g. defence, consumer durables, momentum factor) plus sector indices — excluding broad benchmarks like Nifty 50.

How do quadrants work?

Leading = strong 3-month RS and improving pace; Lagging = weak RS and fading pace — similar to a simplified RRG view.

Can I use this for sector allocation?

It is research context on index-level RS — not personalised allocation advice.
