SHARIAH COMPLIANCE
INDIA SCENARIO
TShariah compliant investment in India is a recent concept to attract
Muslim investors, in particular.
TEquity based Shariah investment is the most popular product in
India.
TIndia has the second highest Muslim population in the world.
TAwareness has reached Muslims who are now ready to join the
main-stream.
TNumber of Shariah-compliant stocks in India are much higher than
many Muslim countries, thus providing large stock universe for
investment by Islamic investors.
TOut of 6,000 BSE listed companies, approximately4,200 are
Shariah compliant. The market capitalization of these stocks
accounts for approximately 61% of the total market capitalization of
companies listed on BSE

for every person who has values and ethics.

Jakarta Islamic Index and Jakarta Composite Index concluding that
Islamic index is more resilient towards crisis compare to
conventional stock index.
