Adani Green Energy is likely to find a slot on the 30-stock Sensex during the semi-annual review in December. Pharma major Dr Reddy’s Laboratories is likely to be replaced by the Adani Group firm by the end of this year.

“We are two-thirds of the way through the review period for the December reviewтАжWe see Adani Green Energy as the highest ranked non-constituent in the inclusion zone, while Dr Reddy’s Laboratories is the lowest ranked constituent in deletion zone,” a Business Standard report said, citing analyst Brian Freitas of Periscope Analytics who publishes on Smartkarma.

Any sharp changes in the share prices and turnover may change this scenario over the next couple of months, Freitas added.
