BSE
changes methodology for calculating P/E ratio
Mumbai: BSE has decided to change the methodology
for calculating the price-earnings (P/E) ratio of BSE
indices.
In a statement, BSE said from December 20 onwards, the
exchange would be calculating the price-earnings ratio,
taking into consideration "rolling four quarterly
earnings," instead of the current practice of sourcing
earnings from the annual results.
The statement said the revised method would help to portray
the current earnings trend in a timely and effective manner
by taking into consideration the latest available financials
of the company.
