NSE website restored after short disruption
Mumbai
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) website faced a short outage on Monday morning but was quickly restored. At around 10:40 a.m., users saw a blank white screen when trying to log in, and no market data was visible. However, by 10:48 a.m., the site was back online and functioning normally. NSE addressed the issue on social media platform X, informing users that the website was working again. The exchange also asked users to contact their support email in case of further queries.
NSE is one of the world’s largest stock exchanges and began operations in 1994. It currently has over 22 crore investor accounts, with 11.3 crore unique registered investors as of March 31, 2025. Some investors have accounts with multiple brokers, which explains the higher number of total accounts. Maharashtra has the most investor accounts with 3.8 crore, followed by Uttar Pradesh with 2.4 crore. Gujarat has 1.9 crore, while Rajasthan and West Bengal each have about 1.3 crore investor accounts. The market value of companies listed on NSE rose to Rs 410.87 lakh crore ($4.81 trillion) in FY25, up from Rs 384.2 lakh crore ($4.61 trillion) in FY24. This marks an 6.94 per cent annual growth. Sriram Krishnan, NSE’s Chief Business Development Officer, said that more than 2 crore new accounts were added in just six months. He credited this to digital changes and the rise of mobile trading, especially in smaller cities. As of March 2025, 2,720 companies were listed on the NSE.
