About BSE Limited
Asia’s oldest stock exchange. Dalal Street is named for the brokers who traded under a banyan tree before the building existed.
The exchange traces itself to 1875 and the Native Share and Stock Brokers’ Association, formed by brokers who had been dealing under a banyan tree near the Town Hall. That makes it the oldest stock exchange in Asia. The SENSEX, computed from thirty of its listed companies, is the index most Indians mean when they say ‘the market’.
Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers, the building on Dalal Street, no longer has a trading floor — screen trading ended the ring in 1995 — but the street is still where brokers, sub-brokers and the financial press work.
