Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), established in 1875 as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association," is the oldest stock exchange in Asia. It was the first in India to receive permanent recognition from the Government under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, and continues to be a cornerstone of India's financial infrastructure.

BSE has significantly contributed to the growth of the Indian capital market by offering a transparent and efficient platform for trading in equities, debt instruments, mutual funds, and derivatives. With its advanced electronic trading system (BOLT+), BSE now serves investors across thousands of locations in India and plays a key role in driving financial inclusion and innovation.
