CORORATE STR$CT$RE
$&' is one of the first de1mutualised stock exchanges in the country, where the
ownership and management of the 'xchange is completely divorced from the
right to trade on it. Though the impetus for its establishment came from policy
makers in the country, it has been set up as a public limited company, owned by
the leading institutional investors in the country.
!rom day one, $&' has adopted the form of a demutualised exchange 1 the
ownership, management and trading is in the hands of three different sets of
people. $&' is owned by a set of leading financial institutions, banks, insurance
companies and other financial intermediaries and is managed by professionals,
who do not directly or indirectly trade on the 'xchange. This has completely
eliminated any conflict of interest and helped $&' in aggressively pursuing
policies and practices within a public interest framework.
The $&' model however, does not preclude, but in fact accommodates
involvement, support and contribution of trading members in a variety of ways. ts
(oard comprises of senior executives from promoter institutions, eminent
professionals in the fields of law, economics, accountancy, finance, taxation, etc,
public representatives, nominees of &'( and one full time executive of the
'xchange.
16
9hile the (oard deals with broad policy issues, decisions relating to market
operations are delegated by the (oard to various committees constituted by it.
&uch committees include representatives from trading members, professionals,
the public and the management. The day1to1day management of the 'xchange is
delegated to the Managing :irector who is supported by a team of professional
staff.

HERITAGE
The oldest exchange in Asia and the first exchange in the country to be granted
permanent recognition under the &ecurities ,ontract 6egulation Act, 23;>,
(ombay &tock 'xchange #imited .(&'/ has had an interesting rise to
prominence over the past 25F years.
9hile the (&' is now synonymous with :alal &treet, it wasnIt always so. n
fact the first venues of the earliest stock broker meetings in the 2C;Fs were
amidst rather natural environs 1 under banyan trees 1 in front of the Town *all,
where *orniman ,ircle is now situated. A decade later, the brokers moved
their venue to another set of foliage, this time under banyan trees at the
junction of Meadows &treet and Mahatma "andhi 6oad. As the number of
brokers increased, they had to shift from place to place, and wherever they
went, through sheer habit, they overflowed in to the streets. At last, in 2CB8,
found a permanent place, and one that they could, )uite literally, call their
own. The new place was, aptly, called :alal &treet.
The journey of (&' is as eventful and interesting as the history of ndiaIs
securitiesmarkets. ndiaIs biggest bourse, in terms of listed companies and
market capitalisation, (&' has played a pioneering role in the ndian
74
&ecurities Market 1 one of the oldest in the world. Much before actual
legislations were enacted, (&' had formulated comprehensive set of 6ules
and 6egulations for the ndian ,apital Markets. t also laid down best
practices adopted by the ndian ,apital Markets after ndia gained its
ndependence.
<erhaps, there would not be any leading corporate in ndia, which has not
sourced (&'Is services in resource mobili%ation.
(&' as a brand is synonymous with capital markets in ndia. The (&'
&'$&'? is the benchmark e)uity index that reflects the robustness of the
economy and finance. At par with international standards, (&' has been a
pioneer in several areas. t has several firsts to its credit even in an intensely
competitive environment.
!irst in ndia to introduce ')uity :erivatives
!irst in ndia to launch a !ree !loat ndex

recognised the nformation &ecurity Management &ystem standard
(&BB3314D 4FF4.
!irst to have an exclusive facility for financial training
Moved from =pen =utcry to 'lectronic Trading within just ;F days
An e)ually important accomplishment of (&' is the launch of a nationwide
investor awareness campaign 1 &afe nvesting in the &tock Market 1 under
which nationwide awareness campaigns and dissemination of information
through print and electronic medium was undertaken. (&' also actively
promoted the securities market awareness campaign of the &ecurities and
'xchange (oard of ndia.
n 4FF4, the name The &tock 'xchange, Mumbai, was changed to (&'. (&',
which had introduced securities trading in ndia, replaced its open outcry
system of trading in 233;, when the totally automated trading through the
(&' =nline trading .(=#T/ system was put into practice. The (=#T network
was expanded, nationwide, in 233B. t was at the (&'0s nternational
,onvention *all that ndiaIs 2st (ell ringing ceremony in the history ,apital
76
Markets was held on !ebruary 2Cth, 4FF4. t was the listing ceremony of
(harti Tele ventures #td.
(&' with its long history of capital market development is fully geared to
continue its contributions to further the growth of the securities markets of the
country, thus helping ndia increase its sphere of influence in international
financial markets.
!or the premier &tock 'xchange that pioneered the stock broking activity in
ndia, 24; years of experience seem to be a proud milestone. A lot has
changed since 2CB; when 52C persons became members of what today is
called Q(ombay &tock 'xchange #imitedQ by paying a princely amount of 6e2.
&ince then, the stock market in the country has passed through both good
and bad periods. The journey in the 4Fth century has not been an easy one.
Till the decade of eighties, there was no measure or scale that could precisely
measure the various ups and downs in the ndian stock market. (ombay
&tock 'xchange #imited .(&'/ in 23C> came out with a &tock ndex that
subse)uently became the barometer of the ndian &tock Market.
BSE-SENSEX, first compiled in 23C> is a QMarket ,apitali%ation19eightedQ
index of 5F component stocks representing a sample of large, well1
established and financially sound companies. The base year of (&'1&'$&'?
77
is 23BC1B3. The index is widely reported in both domestic and international
markets through print as well as electronic media. BSE-SENSEX is not only
scientifically designed but also based on globally accepted construction and
review methodology. The !ar"et Capitalization-#eighted methodology is a
widely followed index construction methodology on which majority of global
e)uity benchmarks are based.
The growth of e)uity markets in ndia has been phenomenal in the decade
gone by. 6ight from early nineties the stock market witnessed heightened
activity in terms of various bull and bear runs. More recently, the bourses in
ndia witnessed a similar fren%y in the 0TMT0 sectors. The (&'1&'$&'?
captured all these happenings in the most judicial manner. =ne can identify
the booms and bust of the ndian e)uity market through (&'1&'$&'?.
The launch of (&'1&'$&'? in 23C> was later followed up in 7anuary 23C3
by introduction of (&' $ational ndex .(aseD 23C51C8 S 2FF/. t comprised of
2FF stocks listed at five major stock exchanges in ndia at Mumbai, ,alcutta,
:elhi, Ahmedabad and Madras. The (&' $ational ndex was renamed as
(&'12FF ndex from =ctober 28, 233> and since then it is calculated taking
into consideration only the prices of stocks listed at (&'.
78
9ith a view to provide a better representation of the increased number of
companies listed, increased market capitalisation and the new industry
groups, the 'xchange constructed and launched on 4Bth May, 2338, two new
index series vi%., the 0(&'14FF0 and the 0:=##'?14FF0 indices. &ince then,
(&' has come a long way in attuning itself to the varied needs of investors
and market participants. n order to fulfill the need of the market participants
for still broader, segment1specific and sector1specific indices, the 'xchange
has continuously been increasing the range of its indices. The launch of (&'1
4FF ndex in 2338 was followed by the launch of (&'1;FF ndex and ;
sectoral indices in 2333. n 4FF2, (&' launched the (&'1<&@ ndex,
:=##'?15F and the country0s first free1float based index 1 the (&' T',k
ndex taking the family of (&' ndices to 25.
The 'xchange also disseminates the <rice1'arnings 6atio, the <rice to (ook
Halue 6atio and the :ividend Eield <ercentage on day1to1day basis of all its
major indices.
The values of all (&' indices .except the :ollar version of indices/ are
updated every 2; seconds during the market hours and displayed through the
(=#T system, (&' website and news wire agencies.
79
All (&'1ndices are reviewed periodically by the Qndex ,ommitteeQ of the
'xchange. The committee frames the broad policy guidelines for the
development and maintenance of all (&' indices. The ndex ,ell of the
'xchange carries out the day to day maintenance of all indices and conducts
research on development of new indices.
