Indian Stock Market
The Indian stock markets suffered a sharp crash due to global tensions triggered by US President Donald Trump’s tariff hikes and retaliatory steps by China. This has been one of the steepest intraday drops since the COVID-19 pandemic crash of 2020.
What is Indian Stock Market?
- The Indian Stock Market is a financial market wherein many securities, including equities, bonds, ETFs and derivatives, trade on exchanges at prices determined by demand and supply.
- The Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) regulates the Indian stock markets.
- There are two major stock markets in India-
- National Stock Exchange of India (NSE): The NSE was established in 1992. It offers investments in equities, indices, initial public offerings, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and derivatives. Trading on the NSE occurs via electronic limit orders, which are matched through a trading computer. That allows for anonymity and transparency.
- Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE): The BSE is India's oldest and first functional stock exchange in Asia. It was established in 1875 and is headquartered in Mumbai. When the stock exchange started, it followed a floor trading system. Since then, it has advanced. Today, financial transactions on the BSE are done through an electronic trading system.
- The share market is an organised, regulated and centralised forum that brings together investors and companies. Its primary purpose is to raise finances for business expansion through the sale of shares.
