While BSE Ltd is now synonymous with Dalal Street, it was not always so. The first Chauhan
venue of the earliest stock broker meetings in the 1850s was in rather natural (MD & CEO)
environs - under banyan trees - in front of the Town Hall, where Horniman Circle is
Currency Indian rupee (₹)
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 Street and what is now No. of listings 5,439[2]
called Mahatma Gandhi Road. As the number of brokers increased, they had to shift Market cap ₹150,184.87 billion
from place to place, but they always overflowed to the streets. At last, in 1874, the (US$2.2 trillion)
brokers found a permanent place, and one that they could, quite literally, call their (April 2018)[3]
own. The new place was, aptly, called Dalal Street (Brokers' Street). Indices BSE SENSEX

The Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest stock exchange in Asia.[8] Its history

dates back to 1855, when 22 stockbrokers[9] would gather under banyan trees in

accommodate an increasing number of brokers. The group eventually moved to
BSE 500
Dalal Street in 1874 and became an official organization known as "The Native
Share & Stock Brokers Association" in 1875. Website www.bseindia.com

On August 31, 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 S&P BSE SENSEX index, giving the BSE a means to measure the overall performance of the exchange. In 2000, the
BSE used this index to open its derivatives market, trading S&P BSE SENSEX futures contracts. The development of S&P BSE
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 developed
by CMC Ltd. in 1995. It took the exchange only 50 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 a centralized exchange-based
internet trading system, BSEWEBx.co.in to enable investors anywhere in the world to trade on the BSE platform. Now BSE has

raised capital by issuing shares and as on 3 May 2017 the BSE share which is traded in NSE only closed with Rs.999 .
