What is the NSE?

NSE (National Stock Exchange of India) is a stock exchange where securities such as equity shares, equity derivatives, ETFs, and other permitted assets are traded. NSE began operations in the equity market in 1994 and uses an electronic trading system.

For an investor, NSE provides the marketplace where buy and sell orders are matched according to the exchange’s trading rules. Realise that NSE trading is different from a broker. 

• A broker only provides access to the exchange, while NSE operates the exchange itself.

What is the NSE-BSE Difference?

NSE and BSE (BSE Ltd.) are India’s two major stock exchanges with their own listed securities and benchmark indices. A company in India can be listed on either exchange or on both. For more clarity, check out the key NSE-BSE differences:
