What is NEPSE WACC?
NEPSE WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital) is the average purchase cost of a stock after combining multiple buy transactions at different prices. The average share price in NEPSE is calculated by dividing the total investment amount by the total number of shares purchased.
Example Calculation:
- 100 Kitta @ Rs. 400
- 50 Kitta @ Rs. 300
Average Price: Rs. 366.67 per share

Whether you purchased shares through an IPO, FPO, secondary market, rights offering, auction, or received bonus shares, this calculator helps you determine the correct average cost price used in MeroShare and capital gain calculations.
Investors frequently use a NEPSE WACC Calculator to monitor portfolio performance, calculate break-even prices, and determine taxable profits when selling shares. Instead of manually calculating weighted averages across multiple transactions, this tool instantly computes your share average using official investment accounting principles.
How to Calculate Share Average in Nepal
Whenever you purchase the same stock multiple times at different prices, you need to calculate a weighted average cost rather than a simple arithmetic average. The weighted average method gives higher importance to transactions with larger quantities.
- Collect all purchase transactions.
- Multiply quantity by purchase price for each transaction.
- Calculate total investment.
- Add all shares together.
- Divide total investment by total shares.
- Adjust for bonus and rights shares.
- Include broker commission if calculating actual acquisition cost.
NEPSE WACC Formula
The official formula used by MeroShare to determine your holding cost basis is straightforward:
WACC = Σ(Quantity × Price) ÷ Σ(Quantity)NEPSE Share Average Calculation Example
| Purchase | Quantity | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 100 | Rs 400 |
| 2 | 50 | Rs 340 |
NEPSE WACC vs Simple Average
| Metric | Simple Average | WACC |
|---|---|---|
| Uses Quantity Weighting | No | Yes |
| Used by MeroShare | No | Yes |
How Broker Commission Affects Share Average
Many investors make the mistake of calculating WACC using only the purchase price. In reality, your actual acquisition cost should include trading expenses. When buying shares through NEPSE, your total cost may include Purchase Amount, Broker Commission, SEBON Fee, DP Charge, and Clearing Charges.
Share Types and Their Effect on WACC
| Share Type | Impact on WACC |
|---|---|
| IPO | Usually lowers average |
| FPO | Recalculates average |
| Secondary Market | Recalculates average |
| Bonus Share | Reduces average |
| Rights Share | Recalculates average |
| Auction Share | Recalculates average |
How Bonus Shares Affect WACC
Bonus shares significantly affect your average share price. When a company distributes bonus shares, the number of shares increases while the investment amount remains unchanged. This automatically lowers your average cost per share.
Before Bonus: 100 Kitta @ Rs. 500 (Investment = Rs. 50,000)
Bonus Ratio: 1:1
After Bonus: 200 Kitta (Investment = Rs. 50,000)
New Average Cost = Rs. 250
How Rights Shares Affect Average Cost
Rights shares differ from bonus shares because investors pay an additional amount to subscribe. When rights shares are purchased, both your total shares and total investment amount increase. The weighted average must be recalculated to reflect the new injection of capital. Rights shares usually reduce the average price if issued below the current market average.
