What is the difference between NSE and BSE in the Indian stock market?

 The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) are the two main stock exchanges in India.

NSE is the larger of the two exchanges and is considered to be the more technologically advanced one. It offers trading in derivatives, currency and debt instruments along with equity. It has a larger number of listed companies, more trading volumes and higher liquidity.

BSE, on the other hand, is the oldest stock exchange in Asia and has a longer history of trading. It has a larger number of small and medium enterprises listed on it. BSE also has an index called SENSEX which is widely followed by investors.

Both exchanges have their own indices, NIFTY for NSE and SENSEX for BSE, which are considered to be the benchmark indices for the Indian stock market.
