NSE building at BKC, Mumbai
The National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSE) (Marathi: Rashtriya
hare Bzar)) is a stock exchange located in the financial capital of Mumbai, India. National
Stock Exchange (NSE) was established in the mid 1990s as a demutualised electronic exchange.
NSE provides a modern, fully automated screen-based trading system, with over two lakh
trading terminals, through which investors in every nook and corner of India can trade. NSE has
played a critical role in reforming the Indian securities market and in bringing unparalleled
transparency, efficiency and market integrity.
NSE has a market capitalisation of more than US$989 billion and 1,635 companies listed as on
July 2013. Though a number of other exchanges exist, NSE and the Bombay Stock Exchange are
the two most significant stock exchanges in India, and between them are responsible for the vast
majority of share transactions. NSE's flagship index, the S&P CNX Nifty, is used extensively by
investors in India and around the world to take exposure to the Indian equities market.
NSE was started by a clutch of leading Indian financial institutions. It offers trading, clearing and
settlement services in equity, debt and equity derivatives. It is India's largest exchange, globally
in cash market trades, in currency trading and index options. NSE has diversified shareholding.
There are many domestic and global institutions and companies that hold stake in the exchange.
Some of the domestic investors include LIC, GIC, State Bank of India and IDFC Ltd. Foreign
investors include MS Strategic (Mauritius) Limited, Citigroup Strategic Holdings Mauritius
Limited, Tiger Global Five Holdings and Norwest Venture Partners X FII-Mauritius, who have a
stake in NSE. As on June 2013, NSE has 1673 VSAT terminals and 2720 leaselines, spread over
more than 2000 cities across India.
Origin was started by a clutch of leading Indian financial institutions at the behest of the
Government of India to bring transparency to the Indian market, and has a diversified
shareholding comprising domestic and global investors. The domestic investors includes Life
Insurance Corporation of India, GIC, State Bank of India and Infrastructure Development
Finance Company (IDFC) Ltd, while the foreign investors include MS Strategic (Mauritius)
Limited, Citigroup Strategic Holdings Mauritius Limited, Tiger Global Five Holdings and
Norwest Venture Partners X FII-Mauritius. The exchange was incorporated in 1992 as a tax-
paying company and was recognized as a stock exchange in 1993 under the Securities Contracts
(Regulation) Act, 1956, when Mr. P. V. Narasimha Rao was the Prime Minister of India and Dr.
Manmohan Singh was the Finance Minister. NSE commenced operations in the Wholesale Debt
Market (WDM) segment in June 1994. The Capital market (Equities) segment of the NSE
commenced operations in November 1994, while operations in the Derivatives segment
commenced in June 2000. In December 2013, NSE celebrated its 20th anniversary in a glittering
ceremony attended by the Chairman of the market regulator SEBI Mr. U. K. Sinha, Finance
Minister Mr. P. Chidambaram and a host of dignitaries from other regulatory organizations, the
market and the corporate world. The institution that has been a catalyst of reforms since
inception pledged to continue with this tradition on this solemn occasion, and set even loftier
goals for the future, while the market regulator announced that NSE had made India proud in the
global arena. Over the years, NSE has constantly re-invented itself, be it adapting to the latest
technology, introducing new products, or in its endeavor to promote financial literacy. The spirit
of the organisation is aptly summed up in MD & CEO Ms. Chitra Ramkrishnas words when she
said, at heart NSE always wants to be young and always wants to be energetic. In the past 20
years, the exchange has set certain standards. As articulated by Ms. Ramkrishna, the endeavour
now is not only on ensuring that those standards are maintained, but also on being able to
improve upon them.

How NSE brought about a paradigm shift in Financial
market
NSE was mainly set up to bring in transparency in the markets. Instead of trading membership
being confined to a group of brokers, NSE ensured that anyone who was qualified, experienced
and met minimum financial requirements was allowed to trade. In this context, NSE was ahead
of its times when it separated ownership and management in the exchange under SEBI's
supervision. The price information which could earlier be accessed only by a handful of people
could now be seen by a client in a remote location with the same ease. The paper-based
settlement was replaced by electronic depository-based accounts and settlement of trades was
always done on time. One of the most critical changes was that a robust risk management system
was set in place, so that settlement guarantees could protect investors against broker defaults.
NSE was also instrumental in creating the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) which
allowed investors to securely hold and transfer their shares and bonds electronically. It also
allowed investors to hold and trade in as few as one share or bond. This not only made holding
financial instruments convenient, but more importantly eliminated the need for paper certificates
and greatly reduced the incidents of forged or fake certificates and fraudulent transactions that
had plagued the Indian stock market. The NSDL's security, combined with the transparency,
lower transaction prices and efficiency that NSE offered, greatly increased the attractiveness of
the Indian stock market to domestic and international investors.
Markets
NSE offers trading in the following segments:
Equities
Equities
Indices
Mutual Funds
Exchange Traded Funds
Initial Public Offerings
Security Lending and Borrowing Scheme
Derivatives
Equity Derivatives (including Global Indices like S&P 500, Dow Jones and FTSE )
Currency Derivatives
Interest Rate Futures
Debt
Corporate Bonds
Equity Derivatives
The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) commenced trading in derivatives with the
launch of index futures on 12 June 2000. The futures and options segment of NSE has made a
mark for itself globally. In the Futures and Options segment, trading in CNX Nifty Index, CNX
IT index, Bank Nifty Index, Nifty Midcap 50 index and single stock futures are available.
Trading in Mini Nifty Futures & Options and Long term Options on CNX Nifty are also
available. The average daily turnover in the F&O Segment of the Exchange on 28 February 2013
stood at Rs 4,02,090.64 crore.
On 29 August 2011, National Stock Exchange launched derivative contracts on the worlds most
followed equity indices, the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. NSE is the first
Indian exchange to launch global indices. This is the also the first time in the world that futures
contracts on the S&P 500 index were introduced and listed on an exchange outside of their home
country, USA. The new contracts include futures on both the DJIA and the S&P 500, and options
on the S&P 500.
On 3 May 2012, the National Stock exchange launched derivative contracts (futures and options)
on FTSE 100, the widely tracked index of the UK equity stock market. This was the first of its
kind of an index of the UK equity stock market launched in India. FTSE 100 includes 100 largest
UK listed blue chip companies and has given returns of 17.8 per cent on investment over three
years. The index constitutes 85.6 per cent of UKs equity market cap.
[2]

On 10 January 2013, the National Stock Exchange signed a letter of intent with the Japan
Exchange Group, Inc. (JPX) on preparing for the launch of CNX Nifty Index futures, a
representative stock price index of India, on the Osaka Securities Exchange Co., Ltd. (OSE), a
subsidiary of JPX.
[3]

Moving forward, both parties will make preparations for the listing of yen-denominated CNX
Nifty Index futures by March 2014, the integration date of the derivatives markets of OSE and
Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. (TSE), a subsidiary of JPX. This is the first time that retail and
institutional investors in Japan will be able to take a view on the Indian markets, in addition to
current ETFs, in their own currency and in their own time zone. Investors will therefore not face
any currency risk, because they will not have to invest in dollar denominated or rupee
denominated contracts.
Currency Derivatives
In August 2008, currency derivatives were introduced in India with the launch of Currency
Futures in USD INR by NSE. It also added currency futures in Euros, Pounds and Yen. The
average daily turnover in the F&O Segment of the Exchange on 20 June 2013 stood at Rs
41,926.16 crore in futures and Rs 27,397.70 crore in options, respectively.
Interest Rate Futures
In December 2013, exchanges in India received approval from market regulator SEBI for
launching interest rate futures (IRFs) on a single GOI bond or a basket of bonds that will be cash
settled. Market participants have been in favour of the product being cash settled and being
available on a single bond. NSE will launch the NSE Bond Futures on January 21 on highly
liquid 7.16 percent and 8.83 percent 10-year GOI bonds. Interest Rate Futures were introduced
for the first time in India by NSE on 31 August 2009, exactly one year after the launch of
Currency Futures. NSE became the first stock exchange to get an approval for interest-rate
futures, as recommended by the SEBI-RBI committee.
Debt Market
On 13 May 2013, NSE launched India's first dedicated debt platform to provide a liquid and
transparent trading platform or debt related products.
[4]

The Debt segment provides an opportunity to retail investors to invest in corporate bonds on a
liquid and transparent exchange platform. It also helps institutions who are holders of corporate
bonds. It is an ideal platform to buy and sell at optimum prices and help Corporates to get
adequate demand, when they are issuing the bonds.
Trading schedule
Trading on the equities segment takes place on all days of the week (except Saturdays and
Sundays and holidays declared by the Exchange in advance). The market timings of the equities
segment are:
(1) Pre-open session
o Order entry & modification Open: 09:00 hrs

The Exchange may however close the market on days other than the above schedule holidays or
may open the market on days originally declared as holidays. The Exchange may also extend,
advance or reduce trading hours when it deems fit and necessary.
Exchange Traded Funds on NSE
An exchange-traded fund is an investment fund that is traded on a stock exchange, just like
stocks. An ETF holds assets such as stocks, commodities or bonds and trades in value, around its
(NAV) over the course of the trading day. Most ETFs track an index such as a stock index or a
bond index. ETFs are attractive investments because of their low costs, diversified holdings, tax
efficiency and stock-like features. ETFs are the most popular type of exchange-traded products
in the USA and Europe.
Exchange Traded Funds are simple and easy to understand. Most ETFs also have an intrinsically
lower risk due to their diversified portfolio. This diversification coupled with low expenses
allows the smallest of the investors to reap the benefits of market based returns. Retail investors
can use ETFs as an easy entry vehicle into the capital markets. Equity investments are most
likely to give you attractive long term growth. And, this growth is reflected in market indices,
like the NSE Nifty.
The following products are trading on CNX Nifty Index in the Indian and international Market:
7 Asset Management Companies have launched ETFs on CNX Nifty Index which are listed on NSE
15 index funds have been launched on CNX Nifty Index
Unit linked products have been launched on CNX Nifty Index by several insurance companies in
India
World Indices
Derivatives Trading on CNX Nifty Index:
Futures and Options trading on CNX Nifty Index
Trading in CNX Nifty Index Futures on Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX)
Trading in CNX Nifty Index Futures on Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME)
Technology
NSEs trading system, is a state of-the-art application. It has an up time record of 99.99% and
processes more than 450 million messages every day with sub millisecond response time.
[5]

NSE has taken huge strides in technology in these 20 years. In 1994, when trading started, NSE
technology was handling 2 orders a second. This increased to 60 orders a second in 2001. Today
NSE can handle 1, 60,000 orders/messages per second, with infinite ability to scale up at short
notice on demand
While settlements were delayed and uncertain before 1994, NSE has continuously worked
towards ensuring that the settlement cycle comes down. Settlements have always been handled
smoothly. The settlement cycle has been reduced from T+5 to T+2/T+1. The exchange
continuously strives to enhance capacity to effectively meet the requirements of increased users
and associated transaction loads.
Financial Literacy
NSE is keen to ensure that the people of India are empowered to take sound financial decisions
and invest wisely. It has collaborated with several universities like Gokhale Institute of Politics
& Economics (GIPE), Pune, Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University (BVDU), Pune, Guru
Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Delhi, Ravenshaw University of Cuttack and Punjabi
University, Patiala, among others to offer MBA and BBA courses. NSE has also provided mock
market simulation software called NSE Learn to trade (NLT) to develop investment, trading
and portfolio management skills among the students. The simulation software is very similar to
the software currently being used by the market professionals and helps students to learn how to
trade in the markets.
The exchange has also worked with a missionary zeal to educate investors about the
opportunities in the market, the precautions they should take and their rights and obligations. In
order to educate investors and help them invest wisely, NSE conducts nearly 1,500 seminars
every year in the metros as well as the smallest towns of India.
NSE also conducts online examination and awards certification, under its Certification in
Financial Markets (NCFM) programmes.
[6]
At present, certifications are available in 46 modules,
covering different sectors of financial and capital markets, both at the beginner and advanced
levels. The list of various modules can be found at the official site of NSE India. In addition,
since August 2009, it offers a short-term course called NSE Certified Capital Market
Professional (NCCMP).
[7]
The NCCMP or NSE Certified Capital Market Professional is a 100
hour program for over 34 months, conducted at the colleges, and covers theoretical and
practical training in subjects related to the capital markets. NCCMP covers subjects like equity
markets, debt markets, derivatives, macroeconomics, technical analysis and fundamental
analysis. Successful candidates are awarded joint certification from NSE and the concerned

History


The Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers house the Bombay Stock Exchange since 1980.
The Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest exchange in Asia. It traces its history to 1855, when
four Gujarati and one Parsi stockbroker would gather under banyan trees in front of Mumbai's
Town Hall. The location of these meetings changed many times, as the number of brokers
constantly increased. The group eventually moved to Dalal Street in 1874 and in 1875 became an
official organization known as 'The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association'.
On 31 August 1957, the BSE became the first stock exchange to be recognized by the Indian
Government under the Securities Contracts Regulation Act. In 1980 the exchange moved to the
Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers at Dalal Street, Fort area. In 1986,it developed the BSE SENSEX
index, giving the BSE a means to measure overall performance of the exchange. In 2000 the BSE
used this index to open its derivatives market, trading SENSEX futures contracts. The
development of SENSEX options along with equity derivatives followed in 2001 and 2002,
expanding the BSE's trading platform.
Historically an open outcry floor trading exchange, the Bombay Stock Exchange switched to an
electronic trading system in 1995. It took the exchange only fifty days to make this transition.
This automated, screen-based trading platform called BSE On-line trading (BOLT) had a
capacity of 8 million orders per day. The BSE has also introduced the world's first centralized
exchange-based internet trading system, BSEWEBx.co.in to enable investors anywhere in the
world to trade on the BSE platform.

Indices


Graph of S&P BSE SENSEX monthly data from January 1991 to May 2013
The launch of SENSEX in 1986 was later followed up in January 1989 by introduction of BSE
National Index (Base: 1983-84 = 100). It comprised 100 stocks listed at five major stock
exchanges in India - Mumbai, Calcutta, Delhi, Ahmedabad and Madras. The BSE National Index
was renamed BSE-100 Index from 14 October 1996 and since then, it is being calculated taking
into consideration only the prices of stocks listed at BSE. BSE launched the dollar-linked version
of BSE-100 index on 22 May 2006. BSE launched two new index series on 27 May 1994: The
'BSE-200' and the 'DOLLEX-200'. BSE-500 Index and 5 sectoral indices were launched in 1999.
In 2001, BSE launched BSE-PSU Index, DOLLEX-30 and the country's first free-float based
index - the BSE TECk Index. Over the years, BSE shifted all its indices to the free-float
methodology (except BSE-PSU index). BSE disseminates information on the Price-Earnings
Ratio, the Price to Book Value Ratio and the Dividend Yield Percentage on day-to-day basis of
all its major indices. The values of all BSE indices are updated on real time basis during market
hours and displayed through the BOLT system, BSE website and news wire agencies. All BSE
Indices are reviewed periodically by the BSE Index Committee. This Committee which
comprises eminent independent finance professionals frames the broad policy guidelines for the
development and maintenance of all BSE indices. The BSE Index Cell carries out the day-to-day
maintenance of all indices and conducts research on development of new indices. Popularly
known as BSE.

severely damaged, and many nearby office buildings also suffered some damage. About 50 were
killed by this explosion.
