The stock exchange was established in the year 1875 as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association." Bombay Stock Exchange is the first stock exchange in India to obtain permanent recognition from the Government of India under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956.


The Bombay Stock Exchange(BSE) Sensex also referred to as BSE 30 is a Free- Float Market Capitalization-weighted Stock Market Index of 30 well-established and financially sound companies listed on BSE.
