The capital market in India has generally been in a growth mode ever since the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) as the Capital Markets Regulator came into existence and gradually began introducing codified regulations for the orderly functioning of the capital market.
The Indian stock market has mirrored global trends and this curve upward is expected to sustain. That probably explains the robustness of the IPO market. Foreign Portfolio Investors/Foreign Institutional Investors (FPIs/FIIs) have been significant drivers of the Indian stock markets during the first six months of the current financial year. It is estimated that their investments aggregate some US$ 4.27 billion between early April and mid-September 2021. Despite its trading platform being non-operational for eight years, the Calcutta Stock Exchange continues to function by providing its member's facilities to trade on the National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange under Section 13 of the SCRA.
CSE also allows its eligible listed companies to be traded in NSE and BSE without being required to be separately listed at those Exchanges. CSE members have been availing the benefit of depository services through its wholly-owned subsidiary viz. CSE Capital Markets Pvt. Limited.
