The port-city bourse reviews the index twice in a year.
After the latest revision, three companies - Delta Life Insurance Company, Prime Bank and Shahjalal Islami Bank-- have been included in the CSE-50 Index.
On the other hand, Jamuna Oil Company, Khulna Power Company and Pubali Bank Ltd have been excluded from the previous list.
The CSE-50 companies accounted for 58.83 per cent of the CSE's total market capitalisation and 42.34 per cent of turnover in the past six months as of December 31, 2021, according to a press release.
