The list of stocks in the southern bourse's VN30-Index were recently updated with Tan Tao Group (ITA) replacing Thanh Thanh Cong Tay Ninh Sugar Company (SBT).
ITA had been removed from the VN30-Index a year ago.
Towards the end of last year, the trading volume of ITA exceeded 1 billion shares, with a free-float rate of more than 50 per cent and profits being reported, helping the code to return to the blue chip group. The market price of ITA was VND7,300 (US$0.34) after Thursday's trading, about 40 per cent higher than at the beginning of 2013.
The Ha Noi Stock Exchange also updated its HNX30-Index stocks.
