1National Stock Exchange of India
Since its inception in 1992, National Stock Exchange of India has been at the vanguard of change in the Indian securities market. This period has seen remarkable changes in markets, from how capital is raised and traded, to how transactions are cleared and settled.
The market has grown in scope and scale in a way that could not have been imagined at the time. Average daily trading volumes have jumped from Rs. 17 crore in 1994-95 when NSE started its Cash Market segment to Rs.11,325 crore in 2008-09. Similarly, market capitalization of listed Indian firms went up from Rs.363,350 crore at the end of March 1995 to Rs.2,896,194 crore at end March 2009. Indian equity markets are today among the most deep and vibrant markets in the world.
This transformation was the result of a number of initiatives led by the Government, market regulators and infrastructure providers like exchanges and depositories. NSE’s efforts in this area have included the creation of the first clearing corporation in the country in the form of the National Securities Clearing Corporation Limited (NSCCL). NSCCL today provides central counterparty services and manages settlement risk for multiple products, and is a major factor in the confidence market participants have in the ability of Indian markets to handle extreme shocks without causing any defaults. NSCCL is also the first clearing corporation in the country to receive.
NSE has many other firsts to its name, including the first systematic process of member inspections, a sophisticated market surveillance system, and a country wide high capacity data network supporting close to 200,000 dealer terminals.
The year 2008-09 was an eventful year for NSE, as it saw the launch of new and important products for the securities market. Introduction of Mini Nifty Futures and Options contracts on S&P CNX Nifty during the year has given retail investors an increased ability to participate in index futures and options trading. NSE also started publishing the first volatility index in the country India VIX*. Market participants now have an important tool to assess volatility and create trading strategies to exploit volatility movements. In May 2008, NSE developed a new trading application, NOW, or ‘NEAT on Web’. The NOW platform allows trading members to connect to the exchange through the internet, and has resulted in a significant reduction in both the access cost and turnaround time for providing access. This year also saw a watershed in the Indian currency market in the form of a currency futures contract. NSE was the first stock exchange in the country to launch the contract on August 29, 2008 in USDINR pair. The contract was an instant success, and currently has daily trading volumes in excess of Rs. 2,000 crore and open interest in excess of Rs. 1,000 crore. Other significant developments include Long term Options Contracts on S&P CNX Nifty, Short selling

and Securities Lending and Borrowing Scheme, Direct Market Access (DMA), Futures and Options contracts on S&P CNX Defty index and the NSE E-Bids for Debt Segment. Further NSE also ventured into a new segment by promoting a Power Exchange (Power Exchange India Ltd -PXIL) along with NCDEX.
Today, NSE offers a wide range of products for multiple markets, including equity shares, Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) , Mutual Funds, Debt instruments, Index futures and Options, Stock Futures and Options and Currency futures. Our Exchange has more than 1,400 companies listed in the Capital Market and more than 95% of these companies are actively traded. The debt market has more than 3,954 securities available for trading. Index futures and options trade on seven different indices and on more than 230 stocks in stock futures and options. In currency futures contracts are currently traded in the USDINR pair. Globally, NSE is ranked first in single stock futures in terms of number of contracts traded, and third in stock index futures and stock index options. We also rank third in terms of number of equity shares traded and are the eighth largest derivatives exchange in the world.
Incorporation and Management
The NSE is owned by a set of leading Indian and International financial institutions, banks, insurance companies, private equity funds, mutual funds, venture capital funds etc. NSE was incorporated in November 1992, and received recognition as a stock exchange under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956 in April 1993. It is managed by professionals who do not directly or indirectly trade on the Exchange. The trading rights are with trading members who offer their services to the investors. The Board of NSE comprises of senior executives from promoter institutions and eminent professionals, without having any representation from trading members. While the Board deals with the broad policy issues, the Executive Committees (ECs), which include trading members, formed under the Articles of Association and the Rules of NSE for different market segments, set out rules and parameters to manage the day-to-day affairs of the Exchange. The day-to-day management of the Exchange is delegated to the Managing Director and CEO who is supported by a team of professional staff. Therefore, though the role of trading members at NSE is to the extent of providing only trading services to the investors, the Exchange involves trading members in the process of consultation and participation in vital inputs towards decision making.
Tables 1-1 and 1-2 gives the composition of its Board of Directors and the Executive Committees.
Market Segments and Products
NSE provides a trading platform for of all types of securities for investors under one roof – Equity, Corporate Debt, Central and State Government Securities, T-Bills, Commercial Paper (CPs), Certificate of Deposits (CDs), Warrants, Mutual Funds (MFs) units, Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), Derivatives like Index Futures, Index Options, Stock Futures, Stock Options and Currency Futures. The Exchange provides trading
5
in 4 different segments viz., Wholesale Debt Market (WDM) segment, Capital Market (CM) segment, Futures & Options (F&O) segment and the Currency Derivatives Segment (trading on which commenced on August 29, 2008)
The Wholesale Debt Market segment provides the trading platform for trading of a wide range of debt securities which includes State and Central Government securities, T-Bills, PSU Bonds, Corporate debentures, CPs, CDs etc. However, along with these financial instruments, NSE also launched various products e.g. FIMMDA-NSE MIBID/MIBOR owing to the market need. A reference rate is said to be an accurate measure of the market price. In the fixed income market, it is the interest rate that the market respects and closely matches. In response to this, NSE started computing and disseminating the NSE Mumbai Inter-bank Bid Rate (MIBID) and NSE Mumbai Inter-Bank Offer Rate (MIBOR). Owing to the robust methodology of computation of these rates and its extensive use, this product has become very popular among the market participants. Keeping in mind the requirements of the banking industry, FIs, MFs, insurance companies, who have substantial investments in sovereign papers, NSE also started the dissemination of its yet another product, the ‘Zero Coupon Yield Curve’. This helps in valuation of sovereign securities across all maturities irrespective of its liquidity in the market. The increased activity in the government securities market in India and simultaneous emergence of MFs (Gilt MFs) had given rise to the need for a well defined bond index to measure the returns in the bond market. NSE constructed such an index, ‘NSE Government Securities Index’. This index provides a benchmark for portfolio management by various investment managers and gilt funds. The average daily turnover in the WDM Segment is Rs.1,394 crore (US $ 273.60 million) during 2008-09.
The Capital Market (CM) segment offers a fully automated screen based trading system, known as the National Exchange for Automated Trading (NEAT) system. This operates on a price/time priority basis and enables members from across the country to trade with enormous ease and efficiency. Various types of securities e.g. equity shares, warrants, debentures etc. are traded on this system. The average daily turnover in the CM Segment of the Exchange during 2008-09 was Rs. 11,325 crore. (US $ 2,223 million).
Futures & Options (F&O) segment of NSE provides trading in derivatives instruments like Index Futures, Index Options, Stock Options, Stock Futures. The futures and options segment of NSE has made a mark for itself globally. In the Futures and Options segment, trading in S&P CNX Nifty Index, CNX IT index, Bank Nifty Index, CNX Nifty Junior, CNX 100 index, Nifty Midcap 50 index , S&P CNX Defty and single stocks are available. The average daily turnover in the F&O Segment of the Exchange during 2008-09 was Rs.45,311 crore (US $ 8,893 million).
Currency Derivatives Segment (CDS) at NSE commenced operations on August 29, 2008. with the launch of Currency futures trading in US Dollar-Indian Rupee (USD-INR). On the very first day of operations a total number of 65,798 contracts valued at Rs.291 crore were traded on the Exchange. Since then trading activity in this segment has been witnessing a rapid growth. During August 29, 2008 to March 31, 2009 the segment reported a trading value of Rs.162,272 crore (US $ 31,849 million). A total

Developments during the year.
The year 2008-09 was a significant year wherein major securities market reforms and launch of new products took place.
April 2008 Launch of India VIX*
Volatility Index is a measure of market’s expectation of volatility over the near term. Volatility is often described as the “rate and magnitude of changes in prices” and in finance often referred to as risk. Volatility Index is a measure, of the amount by which an underlying Index is expected to fluctuate, in the near term, (calculated as annualised volatility, denoted in percentage e.g. 20%) based on the order book of the underlying index options.
India VIX is a volatility index based on the Nifty 50 Index Option prices. From the best bid-ask prices of Nifty 50 Options contracts, a volatility figure (%) is calculated which indicates the expected market volatility over the next 30 calendar days.
April 2008 Launch of Securities Lending & Borrowing Scheme
A Securities Lending & Borrowing mechanism allows market participants to take short positions effectively with less cost. It also provides the holder of idle securities with an alternative to earn a return on such holdings without risk.
The Exchange launched a Securities Lending & Borrowing Scheme (SLBS) on April 21, 2008. The Exchange provides automated, screen based, order matching platform to participants to execute lending and borrowing transactions. Securities available for trading in F&O segment of the Exchange have been initially permitted to trade in this segment.
The SLBS was revised from December 22, 2008 to increase the trading time & the lending/borrowing period.
April 2008 Direct Market Access
During April 2008, Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) allowed the direct market access (DMA) facility to the institutional investors. DMA allows brokers to offer clients direct access to the exchange trading system through the broker’s infrastructure without manual intervention by the broker. DMA facility gives clients direct control over orders, help in faster execution of orders, reduce the risk of errors from manual order entry and lend greater transparency and liquidity. DMA also leads to lower impact cost for large orders, better audit trails and better use of hedging and arbitrage opportunities through the use of decision support tools/algorithms for trading.

April 2008 CBCS - Corporate Bond Clearing and Settlement
CBCS is a corporate bond reporting and integrated clearing system. The platform supports trade reporting system where both sides of a corporate bond trade report the deal to the platform. The deal can then be cleared through a settlement system if required. CBCS fills an important need in the corporate bond clearing and settlement space. As transaction volumes rise in the corporate bond market, participants will need to use common clearing and settlement facilities in order to reduce risks and increase settlement efficiency.
July 2008 NOW ‘Neat on Web’
NSE is also offering internet based trading services to NSE members. This facility is branded as NOW ‘Neat on Web’. NOW provides an internet portal for NSE members and their authorized clients to transact orders and trades to the various market of NSE viz. CM, F&O and Currency.

The minimum lot size has been kept small at USD 1000 and applicable margins are also comparably very low due to the less volatile nature of the underlying.
September 2008 ASBA – Application supported by blocked amount
ASBA is an application for subscribing to an issue, containing an authorisation to block the application money in a bank account.
The ASBA process is available in all public issues made through the book building route. An ASBA investor has to submit an ASBA physically or electronically through the internet banking facility, to the SCSB with whom the bank account to be blocked, is maintained. The SCSB then blocks the application money in the bank account specified in the ASBA, on the basis of an authorisation to this effect given by the account holder in the ASBA.

the organisation to retain its competitive edge and ensure timeliness and satisfaction in customer service. In recognition of the fact that technology will continue to redefine the shape of the securities industry, NSE stresses on innovation and sustained investment in technology to remain ahead of competition. NSE is the first exchange in the world to use satellite communication technology for trading. It uses satellite communication technology to energize participation from about 2,648 VSATs from nearly 201 cities spread all over the country.
Its trading system, called National Exchange for Automated Trading (NEAT), is a state of-the-art client server based application. At the server end all trading information is stored in an in-memory database to achieve minimum response time and maximum system availability for users. It has uptime record of 99.7%. For all trades entered into NEAT system, there is uniform response time of less than 1.5 seconds. NSE has been continuously undertaking capacity enhancement measures so as to effectively meet the requirements of increased users and associated trading loads. NSE has also put in place NIBIS (NSEs Internet Based Information System) for on-line real-time dissemination of trading information over the Internet.
As part of its business continuity plan, NSE has established a disaster back-up site at Chennai along with its entire infrastructure, including the satellite earth station and the high-speed optical fibre link with its main site at Mumbai. This site at Chennai is a replica of the production environment at Mumbai. The transaction data is backed up on near real time basis from the main site to the disaster back-up site through the 2 mbps high-speed link to keep both the sites all the time synchronised with each other.
The various application systems that NSE uses for its trading as well clearing and settlement and other operations form the backbone of the Exchange.

The application has been benchmarked to support 15,000 users and handle more than 3 million trades daily. This application also provides data feed for processing to some other systems like Index, OPMS through TCP/IP.

NSE Family
NSCCL
The National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd. (NSCCL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NSE, was incorporated in August 1995 and commenced clearing corporation in April 1996. It was the first clearing corporation in the country to provide novation/settlement guarantee that revolutionized the entire concept of settlement system in India. It was set up to bring and sustain confidence in clearing and settlement of securities; to promote and maintain short and consistent settlement cycles; to provide counter-party risk guarantee, and to operate a tight risk containment system. It carries out the clearing and settlement of the trades executed in the equities and derivatives segments of the NSE. It operates a well-defined settlement cycle and there are no deviations from the same. It also operates Subsidiary General Ledger (SGL) for settling trades in government securities for its constituents. It is the first clearing corporation in the country to establish the Settlement Guarantee Fund (SGF) in June 1996. It has been managing, clearing and settlement functions since its inception without a single failure or clubbing of settlements. NSCCL has also introduced the facility of direct payout to clients account on both the depositories viz., NSDL and CDSL.
Today NSCCL settles trades under the T+2 rolling settlement. It has the credit of continuously upgrading the clearing and settlement procedures and has also bought Indian financial markets in line with international markets
CRISIL has assigned its highest corporate credit rating of ‘AAA’ to the National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd (NSCCL). ‘AAA’ rating indicates highest degree of strength with regard to honouring debt obligations. NSCCL is the first Indian Clearing Corporation to get this rating. The rating reflects NSCCL’s status as Clearing Corporation for NSE, India’s largest stock exchange. The rating also factors in NSCCL’s rigorous risk management controls and adequate settlement guarantee cover.
NSDL
Prior to trading in a dematerialized environment, settlement of trades required moving the securities physically from the seller to the ultimate buyer, through the seller’s broker and buyer’s broker, which involved lot of time and the risk of delay somewhere along the chain. Further, the system of transfer of ownership was grossly inefficient as every
17
transfer involved physical movement of paper to the issuer for registration, with the change of ownership being evidenced by an endorsement on the security certificate. In many cases, the process of transfer took much longer than stipulated in the then regulations. Theft, forgery, mutilation of certificates and other irregularities were rampant. All these added to the costs and delays in settlement, restricted liquidity. To obviate these problems, NSE to promote dematerialization of securities joined hands with UTI and IDBI to set up the first depository in India called the “National Securities Depository Limited” (NSDL). The depository system gained quick acceptance and in a very short span of time it was able to achieve the objective of eradicating the paper from the trading and settlement of securities, and was also able to get rid of the risks associated with fake/forged/stolen/bad paper. Dematerialized delivery today constitutes almost 100% of total of the total delivery based settlement.

Listing of Securities 3
32

3Listing of Securities
The stocks, bonds and other securities issued by issuers require listing for providing liquidity to investors. Listing means formal admission of a security to the trading platform of the Exchange. It provides liquidity to investors without compromising the need of the issuer for capital and ensures effective monitoring of conduct of the issuer and trading of the securities in the interest of investors. The issuer wishing to have trading privileges for its securities satisfies listing requirements prescribed in the relevant statutes and in the listing regulations of the Exchange. It also agrees to pay the listing fees and comply with listing requirements on a continuous basis. All the issuers who list their securities have to satisfy the corporate governance requirement framed by regulators.
Benefits of Listing on NSE
The benefits of listing on NSE are as enumerated below:
• NSE provides a trading platform that extends across the length and breadth of the country. Listing on NSE thus, enables issuers to reach and service investors across the country.
• NSE being the largest stock exchange in terms of trading volumes, the securities trade at low impact cost and are highly liquid. This in turn reduces the cost of trading to the investor.
• The trading system of NSE provides unparallel level of trade and post-trade information. The best 5 buy and sell orders are displayed on the trading system and the total number of securities available for buying and selling is also displayed. This helps the investor to know the depth of the market. Further, corporate announcements, results, corporate actions etc are also available on the trading system, thus reducing scope for price manipulation or misuse.
• The facility of making initial public offers (IPOs), using NSE's network and software, results in significant reduction in cost and time of issues.
• NSE’s web-site www.nseindia.com provides a link to the web-sites of the companies that are listed on NSE, so that visitors interested in any company can visit that company’s web-site from the NSE site.
• Listed companies are provided with monthly trade statistics of the securities of the company listed on the Exchange.
• The listing fee is nominal.
Listing Criteria
The Exchange has laid down criteria for listing of new issues by companies through IPOs, companies listed on other exchanges, etc. in conformity with the Securities
34
Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957, SEBI Guidelines and other relevant guidelines/acts. The criteria include minimum paid-up capital and market capitalisation, company/promoter's track record, etc. The listing criteria for companies in the CM Segment are presented in Table 3-1. The issuers of securities are required to adhere to provisions of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, the Companies Act, 1956, the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992, and the rules, circulars, notifications, guidelines, etc. prescribed there under.
Listing Agreement
All companies seeking listing of their securities on the Exchange are required to enter into a formal listing agreement with the Exchange. The agreement specifies all the quantitative and qualitative requirements to be continuously complied with by the issuer for continued listing. The Exchange monitors such compliance and companies who do not comply with the provisions of the listing agreement may be suspended from trading on the Exchange. The agreement is being increasingly used as a means to improve corporate governance.
Compliance by Listed Companies
NSE has institutionalised a process of verifying compliance of various conditions of the listing agreement. It conducts a periodic review for compliance on account of announcement of book closure/record date, announcement of quarterly results, submission of shareholding pattern, annual reports, appointment of compliance officer, corporate governance report, investor grievances and various disclosures etc.
Disclosures by Listed Companies
It is essential that all critical price sensitive/material information relating to securities is made available to the market participants and the investors immediately to enable them to take informed decisions in respect of their investments in securities. The Exchange therefore ensures certain important timely disclosures by listed companies and disseminates them to market through the NEAT terminals and through its website. These disclosures include corporate actions, quarterly/half yearly results, decisions at board meeting, non-promoters’ holding, announcements / press releases etc.
De-listing
There are two kinds of delisting which can be done from the Exchanges as per the SEBI (Delisting of Securities) Guidelines, 2003 in the following manner:
Voluntary De-listing of Companies
Any promoter or acquirer desirous of delisting securities of the company under the provisions of these guidelines are required obtain the prior approval of shareholders of the company by a special resolution passed at its general meeting, make a public announcement in the manner provided in these guidelines, make an application to
35
the delisting exchange in the form specified by the exchange, and comply with such other additional conditions as may be specified by the concerned stock exchanges from where securities are to be de-listed. Any promoter of a company which desires to de-list from the stock exchange should also determine an exit price for delisting of securities in accordance with the book building process as stated in the guidelines. The stock exchanges shall provide the infrastructure facility for display of the price at the terminal of the trading members to enable the investors to access the price on the screen to bring transparency to the delisting process.
Compulsory De-listing of Companies
The stock exchanges may de-list companies which have been suspended for a minimum period of six months for non-compliance with the listing agreement. The stock exchanges have to give adequate and wide public notice through newspapers and also give a show cause notice to a company. The exchange shall provide a time period of 15 days within which representation may be made to the exchange by any person who may be aggrieved by the proposed delisting.
The Stock Exchanges may, after consideration of the representation received from the aggrieved persons, delist the securities of such companies. The stock exchange shall ensure that adequate and wide public notice is given through newspaper and on the notice boards/trading systems of the stock exchanges and shall ensure disclosure in all such notices of the fair value of such securities. The stock exchange shall display the name of such company on its website. Where the securities of the company are de-listed by an exchange, the promoter of the company shall be liable to compensate the security holders of the company by paying them the fair value of the securities held by them and acquiring their securities, subject to their option to remain security-holders with the company. The companies delisted during 2008-09 are mentioned in the table below.
Sr. No. Name of the Company Date of Delisting
1 Bosch Chassis Systems India Limited 7-Nov-08
2 Pentamedia Graphics Limited 09-Jan-09
3 Pentasoft Technologies Limited 09-Jan-09
CM Segment
Two categories, namely ‘listed’ and ‘permitted to trade’ categories of securities (equity shares, preference shares and debentures) are available for trading in the CM segment. However, the permitted to trade category has been phased out gradually and no new company is been given the benefit of this category. At the end of March 2009, 1,432 companies were listed while 1,291 companies available for trading. These securities had a market capitalisation of Rs. 2,896,194 crore (US $ 568,439 million).

In this system a member can punch into the computer quantities of securities and the prices at which he likes to transact and the transaction is executed as soon as it finds a matching sale for buy order for a counter party. The numerous advantages of the NEAT system are detailed out below :
• It electronically matches orders on a price/time priority and hence cuts down on time, cost and risk of error, as well as on fraud resulting in improved operational efficiency.
• It allows faster incorporation of price sensitive information into prevailing prices, thus increasing the informational efficiency of markets.
• It enables market participants to see the full market on real-time, making the market transparent. It allows a large number of participants, irrespective of their geographical locations, to trade with one another simultaneously, improving the depth and liquidity of the market.
• It provides tremendous flexibility to the users in terms of kinds of orders that can be placed on the system. It ensures full anonymity by accepting orders, big or small, from members without revealing their identity, thus providing equal access to everybody.
• It provides a perfect audit trail which helps to resolve disputes by logging in the trade execution process in entirety.
• The trading platform of the CM segment is accessed not only from the computer terminals from the premises of brokers spread over about 192 cities, but also from the personal computers in the homes of investors through the Internet.

On-line IPOs
The on-line trading system of NSE is used by companies to make IPOs through book building. It is a fully automated screen based bidding system that allows trading members to enter bids on behalf of their clients. All bids received by the system are numbered, time stamped, and stored in the book till the last day of the book building process and the offer price is determined after the bid closing date. While ensuring efficient price discovery, this system reduces time taken for completion of the issue process. 298 companies have used the on-line IPO system of NSE by the end of March 2009.

Volatility Index
Volatility Index is a measure of market’s expectation of volatility over the near term. Volatility is often described as the “rate and magnitude of changes in prices” and in finance often referred to as risk. Volatility Index is a measure, of the amount by which an underlying Index is expected to fluctuate, in the near term, (calculated as annualised volatility, denoted in percentage e.g. 20%) based on the order book of the underlying index options. Volatility Index is a good indicator of the investors’ perception on how volatile markets are expected to be in the near term. Usually, during periods of market volatility, market moves steeply up or down and the volatility index tends to rise. As volatility subsides, option prices tend to decline, which in turn causes volatility index to decline.
India VIX*
NSE has been in the forefront of bringing the latest products and services to the Indian capital markets for the benefit of the investors. In another innovation in the Indian markets, NSE launched the India VIX on 08th April, 2008 a volatility index based on the Nifty 50 Options prices. From the best bidask prices of Nifty 50 Options contracts (which are traded on the F&O segment of NSE), a volatility figure (%) is calculated which indicates the expected market volatility over the next 30 calendar days. Higher the implied volatility higher the India VIX value and vice versa.
There are some differences between a price index, such as the Nifty 50 and India VIX. Nifty 50 is calculated based on the price movement of the underlying 50 stocks which comprises the index. India VIX is calculated based on the bid-offer prices of the near and mid month Nifty 50 Index Options. Nifty 50 Index is an absolute number, e.g. 4500, 5000 etc., whereas India VIX is a percentage value (eg. 20%, 30% etc.). Whereas Nifty 50 signifies how the markets have moved directionally, India VIX indicates the expected near term volatility and how the volatility is changing from time to time.
Uses of Volatility Index
Volatility Index offers great advantages in terms of trading, hedging and introducing derivative products on this index. Investors can use volatility index for various purposes as mentioned :
* “VIX” is a trademark of Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated ("CBOE") and Standard & Poor’s has granted a license to NSE, with permission from CBOE, to use such mark in the name of the India VIX and for purposes relating to the India VIX.
61
• Investors’ portfolios are exposed to the market volatility. Investors could hedge their portfolios against volatility with an off-setting position in India VIX* futures or options contracts.
• Volatility index depicts the collective consensus of the market on the expected volatility and being contrarian in nature helps in predicting the direction. Investors therefore could appropriately use this information for taking trading positions.
• Investors could also use the implied volatility information given by the index, in identifying mis-priced options.
• Short sale positions could expose investors to directional risk. Derivatives on volatility index could help investors in safeguarding their positions and thus avoid systemic risk for the market Based on the experience gained with the benchmark broad based index, sector specific volatility indices could be constructed to enable hedging by investors in those specific sectors.

Clearing & Settlement
While NSE provides a platform for trading to its trading members, the National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd. (NSCCL) determines the funds/securities obligations of the trading members and ensures that trading members meet their obligations. The core processes involved in clearing and settlement are:
(a) Trade Recording : The key details about the trades are recorded to provide basis for settlement. These details are automatically recorded in the electronic trading system of the exchanges.
(b) Trade Confirmation : The parties to a trade agree upon the terms of trade like security, quantity, price, and settlement date, but not the counterparty which is the NSCCL. The electronic system automatically generates confirmation by direct participants.
(c) Determination of Obligation : The next step is determination of what counter-parties owe, and what counter-parties are due to receive on the settlement date. The NSCCL interposes itself as a central counterparty between the counterparties to trades and nets the positions so that a member has security wise net obligation to receive or deliver a security and has to either pay or receive funds.
(d) Pay-in of Funds and Securities : The members bring in their funds/securities to the NSCCL. They make available required securities in designated accounts with the
63
depositories by the prescribed pay-in time. The depositories move the securities available in the accounts of members to the account of the NSCCL. Likewise members with funds obligations make available required funds in the designated accounts with clearing banks by the prescribed pay-in time. The NSCCL sends electronic instructions to the clearing banks to debit member’s accounts to the extent of payment obligations. The banks process these instructions, debit accounts of members and credit accounts of the NSCCL.
(e) Pay-out of Funds and Securities : After processing for shortages of funds/securities and arranging for movement of funds from surplus banks to deficit banks through RBI clearing, the NSCCL sends electronic instructions to the depositories/clearing banks to release pay-out of securities/funds. The depositories and clearing banks debit accounts of the NSCCL and credit accounts of members. Settlement is complete upon release of pay-out of funds and securities to custodians/members.
(f) Risk Management : A sound risk management system is integral to an efficient settlement system. The NSCCL ensures that trading members’ obligations are commensurate with their net worth. It has put in place a comprehensive risk management system, which is constantly monitored and upgraded to pre-empt market failures. It monitors the track record and performance of members and their net worth; undertakes on-line monitoring of members’ positions and exposure in the market, collects margins from members and automatically disables members if the limits are breached. The risk management methods adopted by NSE have brought the Indian financial market in line with the international markets.
Settlement Agencies
The NSCCL, with the help of clearing members, custodians, clearing banks and depositories settles the trades executed on exchanges. The roles of each of these entities are explained below:
(a) NSCCL : The NSCCL is responsible for post-trade activities of a stock exchange. Clearing and settlement of trades and risk management are its central functions. It clears all trades, determines obligations of members, arranges for pay-in of funds/securities, receives funds/securities, processes for shortages in funds/securities, arranges for pay-out of funds/securities to members, guarantees settlement, and collects and maintains margins/collateral/base capital/other funds. It is the counterparty to all settlement obligations of the members.
(b) Clearing Members : They are responsible for settling their obligations as determined by the NSCCL. They have to make available funds and/or securities in the designated accounts with clearing bank/depositories, as the case may be, to meet their obligations on the settlement day.
(c) Custodians : Custodian is a clearing member but not a trading member. They settle trades assigned to them by trading members. They are required to confirm whether they are going to settle a particular trade or not. If it is confirmed, the NSCCL
64
assigns that obligation to that custodian and the custodian is required to settle it on the settlement day.
(d) Clearing Banks : Every clearing member is required to open a dedicated clearing account with one of the clearing banks. Based on his obligation as determined through clearing, the clearing member makes funds available in the clearing account for the pay-in and receives funds in case of a pay-out.
(e) Depositories : Depositories help in the settlement of the dematerialised securities. Each custodian/clearing member is required to maintain a clearing pool account with the depositories. He is required to make available the required securities in the designated account on settlement day. The depository runs an electronic file to transfer the securities from accounts of the custodians/clearing member to that of NSCCL. As per the schedule of allocation of securities determined by the NSCCL, the depositories transfer the securities on the pay-out day from the account of the NSCCL to those of members/custodians.
(f) Professional Clearing Member : NSCCL admits special category of members namely, professional clearing members. Professional Clearing Member (PCM) may clear and settle trades executed for their clients (individuals, institutions etc.). In such an event, the functions and responsibilities of the PCM would be similar to Custodians. PCMs may also undertake clearing and settlement responsibility for trading members. In such a case, the PCM would settle the trades carried out by the trading members connected to them. A PCM has no trading rights but has only clearing rights, i.e. he clears the trades of his associate trading members and institutional clients.
Settlement Cycles
NSCCL clears and settles trades as per well-defined settlement cycles, as presented in Table 4-16. Since the beginning of the financial year 2003, all securities are being traded and settled under T+2 rolling settlement. The NSCCL notifies the consummated trade details to clearing members/custodians on the trade day. The custodians affirm back the trades to NSCCL by T+1 day. Based on the affirmation, NSCCL nets the positions of counterparties to determine their obligations. A clearing member has to pay-in/pay-out funds and/or securities. A member has a security-wise net obligation to receive/deliver a security. The obligations are netted for a member across all securities to determine his fund obligations and he has to either pay or receive funds. Members’ pay-in/pay-out obligations are determined latest by T+1 day and are forwarded to them on the same day so that they can settle their obligations on T+2 day. The securities/funds are paid-in/paid-out on T+2 day and the settlement is complete in 3 days from the end of the trading day.
Settlement Statistics
The settlement statistics of the CM segment is presented in Table 4-17. During 2008-09, NSCCL settled trades for Rs. 2,749,450 crore (US $ 539,637 million.) of which 22.44% were settled by delivery. However, these deliveries include only the net deliveries made by the trading members to the clearing corporation. Of total delivery, nearly 100% of
65
securities were delivered in demat form in 2008-09. Short deliveries averaged around 0.21 % of total delivery in 2008-09.
Risk Management System
There have been a number of experiments with different risk containment measures in the recent pasts. NSE being aware of the importance of the risk containment measures has a dedicated Risk Group which looks into aspects relating to the risk management. These measures have been repeatedly reviewed and revised. The risk containment measures in vogue are described below:
Capital Adequacy
The capital adequacy requirements stipulated by the NSE are substantially in excess of the minimum statutory requirements as also in comparison to those stipulated by other stock exchanges. A person seeking membership in the CM and F&O segment is required to have a net worth of Rs. 1 crore, and keep an interest free security deposit of Rs. 1.25 crore and collateral security deposit of Rs. 0.25 crore with the Exchange/NSCCL. The deposits kept with the Exchange as part of the membership requirement may be used towards the margin requirement of the member. Additional capital may be provided by the member for taking additional exposure.
On-Line Monitoring
NSCCL has put in place an on-line monitoring and surveillance system, whereby exposure of the members is monitored on a real time basis. A system of alerts has been built in so that both the member and the NSCCL are alerted as per pre-set levels (reaching 70%, 85%, 90%, 95% and 100%) as and when the members approach these limits. The system enables NSSCL to further check the micro-details of members’ positions, if required and take pro-active action.
The on-line surveillance mechanism also generates alerts/reports on any price/volume movement of securities not in line with past trends/patterns. Open positions of securities are also analyzed. For this purpose the exchange maintains various databases to generate alerts. These alerts are scrutinized and if necessary taken up for follow up action. Besides this, rumors in the print media are tracked and where they are found to be price sensitive, companies are approached to verify the same. This is then informed to the members and the public.
Surveillance , Inspection and Investigation
As the securities transactions are prone to a variety of manipulations, the Exchange has instituted a strong surveillance mechanism to protect market integrity. Surveillance mechanism includes monitoring of orders and trades data, open positions and corporate information that flow into the market to identify possible market abuse practices. Various on-line and off-line alerts/reports are generated, on any price/volume movement of
66
securities not in line with past trends/patterns. Besides, rumors in the print media are tracked and where they are price sensitive, companies are contacted for verification. Replies received are informed to the members and the public.
The investigation is based on various alerts which require further analysis. If further analysis suggests any possible irregular activity which deviates from the past trends/patterns and concentration of trading at NSE at the client level, then a more detailed investigation is undertaken. If the detailed investigation establishes any irregular activity, then disciplinary action is initiated against the member. If the investigation suggests possible irregular activity across exchanges and/or possible involvement of clients, then the same is informed to SEBI.
As per regulatory requirement, a minimum of 20% of the active trading members in the Capital Market segment and 50 % of active trading members in the derivatives segment are to be inspected every year to verify the level of compliance with various rules, byelaws and regulations of the Exchange. Usually, inspection of more members than the regulatory requirement is undertaken every year. The inspection randomly verifies if investor interests are being compromised in the conduct of business by the members.
Margin Requirements
NSCCL imposes stringent margin requirements as a part of its risk containment measures. The categorization of stocks for imposition of margins has the structure as given below;
• The Stocks which have traded atleast 80% of the days for the previous six months constitute the Group I and Group II.
• Out of the scrips identified for Group I & II category, the scrips having mean impact cost of less than or equal to 1% are categorized under Group I and the scrips where the impact cost is more than 1, are categorized under Group II.
• The remaining stocks are classified into Group III.
• The impact cost is calculated on the 15th of each month on a rolling basis considering the order book snapshots of the previous six months. On the basis of the impact cost so calculated, the scrips move from one group to another group from the 1st of the next month.
• For securities that have been listed for less than six months, the trading frequency and the impact cost is computed using the entire trading history of the security
Categorisation of newly listed securities
For the first month and till the time of monthly review a newly listed security is categorised in that Group where the market capitalization of the newly listed security exceeds or equals the market capitalization of 80% of the securities in that particular group. Subsequently, after one month, whenever the next monthly review is carried out, the actual trading frequency and impact cost of the security is computed, to determine the liquidity categorization of the security.
67
In case any corporate action results in a change in ISIN, then the securities bearing the new ISIN shall be treated as newly listed security for group categorization.
Daily margin, comprises of VaR margin, Extreme Loss margin and Mark to Market margin.
1) Value at Risk Margin :
All securities are classified into three groups for the purpose of VaR margin
For the securities listed in Group I, scrip wise daily volatility calculated using the exponentially weighted moving average methodology is applied to daily returns in the same manner as in the derivatives market. The scrip wise daily VaR would be 3.5 times the volatility so calculated subject to a minimum of 7.5%.
For the securities listed in Group II, the VaR margin is higher of scrip VaR (3.5 sigma) or three times the index VaR, and it is scaled up by root 3.
For the securities listed in Group III, the VaR margin is equal to five times the index VaR and scaled up by root 3.
The index VaR, for the purpose, would be the higher of the daily Index VaR based on NSE Nifty 50 or BSE Sensex. The index VaR would be subject to a minimum of 5%.
Security specific Margin: NSCCL may stipulate security specific margins for the securities from time to time.
The VaR margin rate computed as mentioned above will be charged on the net outstanding position (buy value-sell value) of the respective clients on the respective securities across all open settlements. There would be no netting off of positions across different settlements. The VaR margin shall be collected on an upfront basis by adjusting against the total liquid assets of the member at the time of trade. The VaR margin so collected shall be released on completion of pay-in of the settlement
The VaR numbers are recomputed six times during the day taking into account price and volatilities at various time intervals and are provided on the website of the Exchange.
2) Extreme Loss Margin
The Extreme Loss Margin for any security is be higher of 5%, or 1.5 times the standard deviation of daily logarithmic returns of the security price in the last six months. The Extreme Loss Margin is be collected/ adjusted against the total liquid assets of the member on a real time basis
3) Mark to Market Margin
Mark to market loss is calculated by marking each transaction in security to the closing price of the security at the end of trading. In case the security has not been traded on a particular day, the latest available closing price at the NSE is considered
68
as the closing price. In case the net outstanding position in any security is nil, the difference between the buy and sell values is considered as notional loss for the purpose of calculating the mark to market margin payable.
The mark to market margin (MTM) is collected from the member before the start of the trading of the next day. The MTM margin is also collected/adjusted from/against the cash/cash equivalent component of the liquid net worth deposited with the Exchange.
The MTM margin so collected is be released on completion of pay-in of the settlement.
Close Out Facility
An online facility to close–out open positions of members in the capital market segment whose trading facility is withdrawn for any reason, has been provided with effect from June 13, 2007,
On disablement, the trading members will be allowed to place close-out orders through this facility. Only orders which result in reduction of existing open positions at the client level would be accepted through the close-out facility in the normal market. Members would not be allowed to create any fresh position when in the close-out mode, to place close out orders with custodial participant code and to close out open positions of securities in trade for trade segment.
Index-based Market-wide Circuit Breakers
a. An index based market-wide circuit breaker system applies at three stages of the index movement either way at 10%, 15% and 20%. These circuit breakers bring about a coordinated trading halt in trading on all equity and equity derivatives markets across the country. The breakers are triggered by movements in either Nifty 50 or Sensex, whichever is breached earlier.
• In case of a 10% movement in either of these indices, there would be a one-hour market halt if the movement takes place before 1:00 p.m. In case the movement takes place at or after 1:00 p.m. but before 2:30 p.m. there would be trading halt for ½ hour. In case movement takes place at or after 2:30 p.m. there will be no trading halt at the 10% level and market would continue trading.
• In case of a 15% movement of either index, there should be a two-hour halt if the movement takes place before 1 p.m. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 1:00 p.m. but before 2:00 p.m., there should be a one-hour halt. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 2:00 p.m. the trading should halt for remainder of the day.
• In case of a 20% movement of the index, trading should be halted for the remainder of the day.
NSE may suo moto cancel the orders in the absence of any immediate confirmation from the members that these orders are genuine or for any other reason as it may deem
69
fit. The Exchange views entries of non-genuine orders with utmost seriousness as this has market –wide repercussion. As an additional measure of safety, individual scrip-wise price bands have been fixed as below:
• Daily price bands of 2% (either way) on a set of specified securities
• Daily price bands of 5% (either way) on a set of specified securities
• Daily price bands of 10% (either way) on a set of specified securities
• Price bands of 20% (either way) on all the remaining securities (including debentures, warrants, preference shares etc. which are traded on CM segment of NSE),
• No price bands are applicable on scrip on which derivative products are available or scrips included in indices on which derivative products are available. However in order to prevent members from entering orders at non-genuine prices in such securities, the Exchange has fixed operating range of 20% for such securities.
The price bands for the securities in the Limited Physical Market are the same as those applicable for the securities in the Normal Market. For Auction market the price bands of 20% are applicable.
Settlement Guarantee Fund
The Settlement Guarantee Fund provides a cushion for any residual risk and operates like a self-insurance mechanism wherein members themselves contribute to the fund. In the event of a trading member failing to meet his settlement obligation, then the fund is utilized to the extent required for successful completion of the settlement. This has eliminated counter-party risk of trading on the Exchange. The market has full confidence that settlement shall take place in time and shall be completed irrespective of default by isolated trading members.

Wholesale Debt Market Segment 5
96
97
5Wholesale Debt Market Segment
The Exchange started its trading operations in June 1994 by enabling the Wholesale Debt Market (WDM) segment of the Exchange. This segment provides a trading platform for a wide range of fixed income securities that includes Central government securities, treasury bills (T-bills), state development loans (SDLs), bonds issued by public sector undertakings (PSUs), floating rate bonds (FRBs), zero coupon bonds (ZCBs), index bonds, commercial papers (CPs), certificates of deposit (CDs), corporate debentures, SLR and non-SLR bonds issued by financial institutions (FIs), bonds issued by foreign institutions and units of mutual funds (MFs).
To further encourage wider participation of all classes of investors, including the retail investors, the Retail Debt Market segment (RDM) was launched on January 16, 2003. This segment provides for a nation wide, anonymous, order driven, screen based trading system in government securities. The settlement cycle is same as in the case of equity market i.e., T+2 rolling settlement cycle.
Trading Mechanism
The WDM trading system, known as NEAT (National Exchange for Automated Trading), is a fully automated screen based trading system that enables members across the country to trade simultaneously with enormous ease and efficiency. It supports an anonymous order driven market which operates on a price/time priority and provides tremendous flexibility to users in terms of orders with various time/price/quantity related conditions that can be placed on the system. It also provides on-line market information like total order depth, best buys and sells available, quantity traded, the high, low and last traded price for securities are available at all points of time.
The WDM Trading system provides two market sub-types: continuous market and negotiated market. In the continuous market, the buyer and seller do not know each other and they put their best buy/sell orders, which are stored in order book with price/time priority. If orders match, it results into a trade. The trades in WDM segment are settled directly between the participants, who take an exposure to the settlement risk attached to any unknown counter-party. In the NEAT-WDM system, all participants can set up their counter-party exposure limits against all probable counter-parties. This enables the trading member/participant to reduce/ minimize the counter-party risk associated with the counter-party to trade. A trade does not take place if both the buy/sell participants do not invoke the counter-party exposure limit in the trading system.
In the negotiated market, the trades are normally decided by the seller and the buyer outside the exchange, and reported to the Exchange through a trading member for approval. Thus, deals negotiated or structured outside the exchange are disclosed to the market through NEAT-WDM system. In negotiated market, as buyers and sellers know each other and have agreed to trade, no counter-party exposure limit needs to be invoked.
98
The trades on the WDM segment could be either outright trades or repo transactions with settlement cycle of T+2 and repo periods (1 to 14 days). For every trade, it is necessary to specify the number of settlement days and the trade type (repo or non-repo), and in the event of a repo trade, the repo term and repo rate.
Market Performance
Turnover
The trading volume on the WDM Segment of the Exchange witnessed a year on year increase of 19.00 % from Rs. 282,317 crore (US $ 70,632 million) during 2007-08 to Rs. 335,952 crore (US $ 65,937 million) during 2008-09. The average daily trading volume also accelerated from Rs.1,138 crore (US $ 285 million) during 2007-08 to Rs.1,412 crore (US $ 277 million) in fiscal 2008-09. The highest recorded WDM trading volume of Rs. 13,912 crore ( US $ 3,206 million) was registered on August 25, 2003. The business growth of the WDM segment is presented in Table 5-1 and Chart 5-1.

Transaction Charges
The Exchange has waived the transaction charges for the Wholesale Debt Market segment of the Exchange for the period April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010.
Settlement
Settlement is on a rolling basis, i.e. there is no account period settlement. Each order has a unique settlement date specified upfront at the time of order entry and used as a matching parameter. It is mandatory for trades to be settled on the predefined settlement date. The Exchange currently allows settlement periods ranging from same day (T+0) settlement to a maximum of (T+2) for non-government securities while settlement of all outright secondary market transactions in government securities was standardized to T+1. In case of repo transactions in government securities, first leg can be settled either on T+0 basis or T+1 basis.
In case of government securities, the actual settlement of funds and securities are effected directly between participants or through Reserve Bank of India (RBI). All trades in government securities are reported to RBI-SGL through the Negotiated Dealing System (NDS) of RBI, and Clearing Corporation of India Limited (CCIL) provides settlement guarantee for transactions in government securities including repos. The trades are settled on a net basis through the DvP-III system. In the DvP-III, the settlement of Securities and Funds are carried out on a net basis.
For securities other than government securities and T-bills, trades are settled on a gross basis directly between participants on delivery versus payment basis.
On the scheduled settlement date, the Exchange provides data/information to the respective member/participant regarding trades to be settled on that day with details like security, counter party and consideration.
The settlement details for non-government securities, i.e. certificate no., Cheque no., constituent etc. are reported by the member/participant to the Exchange.
The Exchange closely monitors the settlement of transactions through the reporting of settlement details by members and participants. In case of deferment of settlement or cancellation of trade, participants are required to seek prior approval from the Exchange. For any dispute arising in respect of the trades or settlement, the exchange has established arbitration mechanism for resolving the same.

FIMMDA-NSE MIBID/MIBOR
A reference rate is an accurate measure of the market price. In the fixed income market, it is an interest rate that the market respects and closely matches. On these lines, NSE has been computing and disseminating the NSE Mumbai Inter-bank Bid Rate (MIBID) and NSE Mumbai Inter-bank Offer Rate (MIBOR) for the overnight money market from June 15, 1998, the 3 day rates from June 06, 2008, the 14-day MIBID/MIBOR from November 10, 1998 and the 1 month and 3 month MIBID/MIBOR from December 1, 1998. In view of the robust methodology of computation of these rates and their extensive use by market participants, these have been co-branded with Fixed Income and Money Market Dealers Association (FIMMDA) from March 4, 2002. These are now known as FIMMDA-NSE MIBID/MIBOR. These are presented in Table 5-6. The Chart 5-3 presents overnight MIBID/MIBOR for 2008-09.
Chart 5-3 : Overnight MIBID/MIBOR Rates, from 02nd April 2008 to 31st March 2009
FIMMDA-NSE MIBID/MIBOR are based on rates polled by NSE from a representative panel of 33 banks /primary dealers. Overnight Rates for Saturdays is calculated and disseminated at 1030Hrs (IST). The 3 day rates are polled and processed on the last working day of the week. The rates are broadcast through NEAT-WDM trading system immediately on release and also disseminated through websites of NSE and FIMMDA , through leading information vendors ,financial dailies and email.
The FIMMDA-NSE MIBID/MIBOR is used as a benchmark rate for majority of deals struck for interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements, floating rate debentures and term deposits.
102
Zero Coupon Yield Curve
Keeping in mind the requirements of the banking industry, financial institutions, mutual funds, insurance companies, etc. that have substantial investment in sovereign papers, NSE disseminates a ‘Zero Coupon Yield Curve’ (NSE Zero Curve) to help in valuation of securities across all maturities irrespective of its liquidity in the market. This product has been developed by using Nelson-Siegel functional form to estimate the term structure of interest rate at any given point of time and been successfully tested by using daily WDM trades data. This is being disseminated daily.
The ZCYC depicts the relationship between spot interest rates in the economy and the associated term to maturity. It provides daily estimates of the term structure of interest rates using information on secondary market trades in government securities from the WDM segment. The term structure forms the basis for the valuation of all fixed income instruments. Modelled as a series of cashflows due at different points of time in the future, the underlying price of such an instrument is calculated as the net present value of the stream of cashflows. Each cashflow, in such a formulation, is discounted using the interest rate for the associated term to maturity; the appropriate rates are read off the estimated ZCYC. Once estimated, the interest rate-maturity mapping is used to compute underlying valuations even for securities that do not trade on a given day. Changes in the economy cause shifts in the term structure, changing the underlying valuations of fixed income instruments. The daily ZCYC captures these changes, and is used to track the value of portfolios of government securities on a day-to-day basis.
Chart 5-4 plots the spot interest rates at different maturities for the year 2008-09.

NSE-VaR System
NSE has developed a VaR system for measuring the market risk inherent in Government of India (GOI) securities. NSE-VaR system builds on the NSE database of daily yield curves (ZCYC) and provides measures of VaR using 5 alternative methods (variance-covariance (normal), historical simulation method, weighted normal, weighted historical simulation and extreme value method). Together, these 5 methods provide a range of options for market participants to choose from.
NSE-VaR system releases daily estimates of security-wise VaR at 1-day and multi-day horizons for securities traded on WDM segment of NSE and all outstanding GoI securities with effect from January 1, 2002. Participants can compute their portfolio risk as weighted average of security-wise VaRs, the weights being proportionate to the market value of a given security in their portfolio. 1-day VaR (99%) measure for GoI Securities traded on NSE-WDM on March 31, 2009 is presented in Table 5-7.
GOI-Bond Index
The increased activity in the government securities market in India and simultaneous emergence of mutual (gilt) funds has given rise to the need for a well defined Bond Index to measure returns in the bond market. The NSE-Government Securities Index prices components off the NSE Benchmark ZCYC, so that the movements reflect returns to an investor on account of change in interest rates only, and not those arising on account of the impact of idiosyncratic factors. The index provides a benchmark for portfolio management by various investment managers and gilt funds. It also forms the basis for designing index funds and for derivative products such as options and futures. Some of the salient features of this index are:• The base date for the index is 1st January 1997 and the base date index value is 100• The index is calculated on a daily basis from 1st January 1997 onwards; weekends
and holidays are ignored. • The index uses all Government of India bonds issued after April 1992. These
were issued on the basis of an auction mechanism that imparted some amount of market-relatedness to their pricing. Bonds issued prior to 1992 were on the basis of administered interest rates.
• Each day, the prices for all these bonds are estimated off the NSE Benchmark-ZCYC for the day.
• The constituents are weighted by their market capitalisation.• Computations are based on arithmetic and not geometric calculations. • The index uses a chain-link methodology i.e. today’s values are based on the
previous value times the change since the previous calculations. This gives the index the ability to add new issues and remove old issues when redeemed.
• Coupons and redemption payments are assumed to be re-invested back into the index in proportion to the constituent weights.
• Both the Total Returns Index and the Principal Returns Index are computed. • The indices provided are: Composite, 1-3, 3-8, 8+ years, TB index, GS index.

Trading on single stock options commenced on July 2, 2001 while single stock futures were launched on November 9, 2001.
Since inception, NSE established itself as the sole market leader in this segment in the country and during 2008-09, it accounted for 99 % of the market share.
Trading Mechanism
The derivatives trading system at NSE is called NEAT-F&O trading system. It provides a fully automated screen-based trading for all kind of derivative products available on NSE on a nationwide basis. It supports an anonymous order driven market, which operates on a strict price/time priority. It provides tremendous flexibility to users in terms of kinds of orders that can be placed on the system. Various time and price related conditions like Immediate or Cancel, Limit/Market Price, Stop Loss, etc. can be built into an order. Trading in derivatives is essentially similar to that of trading of securities in the CM segment.
The NEAT-F&O trading system distinctly identifies two groups of users. The trading user more popularly known as trading member has access to functions such as, order entry, order matching and order & trade management. The clearing user (clearing member) uses the trader workstation for the purpose of monitoring the trading member(s) for whom he clears the trades. Additionally, he can enter and set limits on positions, which a trading member can take.
Contract Specification
The contract specification for derivative products traded on NSE are summarised in Table 6-2 & Table 6-3.
The index futures and index options contracts traded on NSE are based on S&P CNX Nifty Index, CNX IT Index, Bank Nifty, CNX Nifty Junior, CNX 100, Nifty Midcap 50 and S&P CNX Defty while stock futures and options are based on individual securities. Mini futures and options contracts and long term options contracts are also available on S&P CNX Nifty. Stock futures and options were available on 234 securities as of March 2009.
At any point of time there are only three contract months available for trading, with 1 month, 2 months and 3 months to expiry. These contracts expire on last Thursday of the expiry month and have a maximum of 3-month expiration cycle. If the last Thursday is a trading holiday, the contracts expire on the previous trading day. A new contract is introduced on the next trading day following the expiry of the near month contract. All the derivatives contracts are presently cash settled.
119
The long term option contracts are available for 3 serial month contracts, 3 quarterly months of the cycle March / June / September / December and 5 following semi-annual months of the cycle June / December. Thus, at any point in time there are atleast 3 year tenure option available.
Introduction of strike prices for option contracts
Stock Options
NSE introduces option strikes on a daily basis based on the price of the underlying. With regard to options on stocks the Exchange provides a minimum of seven strike prices for every option type (i.e Call & Put) during the trading month. At any time, there are atleast three strikes in-the-money (ITM), three strikes out-of-the-money (OTM) and one strike at-the-money (ATM). The table below gives details of generation of strike price interval for stock options.

CLEARING AND SETTLEMENT
Clearing and Settlement
NSCCL undertakes clearing and settlement of all trades executed on the F&O Segment of the Exchange. It also acts as legal counterparty to all trades on this segment and guarantees their financial settlement. The Clearing and Settlement process comprises of three main activities, viz., Clearing, Settlement and Risk Management.
129
Clearing Mechanism
The first step in clearing process is working out open positions and obligations of clearing (self-clearing/trading-cum-clearing/professional clearing) members (CMs). The open positions of a CM is arrived at by aggregating the open positions of all the trading members (TMs) and all custodial participants (CPs) clearing though him, in the contracts which they have traded. The open position of a TM is arrived at by summing up his proprietary open position and clients’ open positions, in the contracts which they have traded. While entering orders on the trading system, TMs identify orders as either proprietary or client. Proprietary positions are calculated on net basis for each contract and that of clients are arrived at by summing together net positions of each individual client. A TM’s open position is the sum of proprietary open position, client open long position and client open short position.
Settlement Mechanism
All futures and options contracts are cash settled i.e. through exchange of cash. The underlying for index futures/options of the index cannot be delivered. The settlement amount for a CM is netted across all their TMs/clients, across various settlements. For the purpose of settlement, all CMs are required to open a separate bank account with NSCCL designated clearing banks for F&O segment.
Settlement of Futures Contracts on Index or Individual Securities
Futures contracts have two types of settlements, the MTM settlement which happens on a continuous basis at the end of each day, and the final settlement which happens on the last trading day of the futures contract.
• MTM Settlement for Futures: The positions in futures contracts for each member are marked-to-market to the daily settlement price of the relevant futures contract at the end of each day. The CMs who have suffered a loss are required to pay the mark-to-market (MTM) loss amount in cash which is in turn passed on to the CMs who have made a MTM profit. This is known as daily mark-to-market settlement. CMs are responsible to collect and settle the daily MTM profits/losses incurred by the TMs and their clients clearing and settling through them. Similarly, TMs are responsible to collect/pay losses/ profits from/to their clients by the next day. The pay-in and pay-out of the mark-to-market settlement are effected on the day following the trade day (T+1).
After completion of daily settlement computation, all the open positions are reset to the daily settlement price. Such positions become the open positions for the next day.
• Final Settlement for Futures: On the expiry day of the futures contracts, after the close of trading hours, NSCCL marks all positions of a CM to the final settlement price and the resulting profit/loss is settled in cash. Final settlement loss/profit amount is debited/credited to the relevant CM’s clearing bank account on the day following expiry day of the contract.
130
• Settlement Prices for Futures: Daily settlement price on a trading day is the closing price of the respective futures contracts on such day. The closing price for a futures contract is currently calculated as the last half an hour weighted average price of the contract in the F&O Segment of NSE. Final settlement price is the closing price of the relevant underlying index/security in the Capital Market segment of NSE, on the last trading day of the Contract. The closing price of the underlying Index/security is currently its last half an hour weighted average value in the Capital Market Segment of NSE.
Settlement of Options Contracts on Index or Individual Securities
Options contracts have three types of settlements, daily premium settlement, interim exercise settlement in the case of option contracts on securities and final settlement.
• Daily Premium Settlement for Options: Buyer of an option is obligated to pay the premium towards the options purchased by him. Similarly, the seller of an option is entitled to receive the premium for the option sold by him. The premium payable amount and the premium receivable amount are netted to compute the net premium payable or receivable amount for each client for each option contract. The CMs who have a premium payable position are required to pay the premium amount to NSCCL which in turn passed on to the members who have a premium receivable position. This is known as daily premium settlement. CMs are also responsible to collect and settle for the premium amounts from the TMs and their clients clearing and settling through them. The pay-in and pay-out of the premium settlement is on T+1 day (T=Trade day). The premium payable amount and premium receivable amount are directly credited/debited to the CMs clearing bank account.
• Interim Exercise Settlement: Interim exercise settlement takes place only for option contracts on individual securities. An investor can exercise his in-the-money options at any time during trading hours, through his trading member. Interim exercise settlement is effected for such options at the close of the trading hours, on the day of exercise. Valid exercised option contracts are assigned to short positions in the option contract with the same series (i.e. having the same underlying, same expiry date and same strike price), on a random basis, at the client level. The CM who has exercised the option receives the actual profit or loss per unit of the option from the CM who has been assigned the option contract.
Exercise settlement value is debited/credited to the relevant CMs clearing bank account on T+1 day (T=exercise date).
• Final Exercise Settlement: Final Exercise settlement is effected for option positions at in-the-money strike prices existing at the close of trading hours, on the expiration day of an option contract. All long positions at in-the-money strike prices are automatically assigned to short positions in option contracts with the same series, on a random basis.
131
For index options contracts, exercise style is European style, while for options contracts on individual securities, exercise style is American style. Final Exercise is Automatic on expiry of the option contracts.
Final settlement loss/profit amount for option contracts on Index is debited/credited to the relevant CMs clearing bank account on T+1 day (T=expiry day). Final settlement loss/profit amount for option contracts on Individual Securities is debited/credited to the relevant CMs clearing bank account on T+1 day. Open positions, in option contracts, cease to exist after their expiration day.
The pay-in / pay-out of funds for a CM on a day is the net amount across settlements and all TMs/clients, in F&O Segment.
Settlement of Custodial Participant (CP) Deals
NSCCL provides a facility to entities like institutions to execute trades through any TM, which may be cleared and settled by their own CM. Such entities are called Custodial Participants (CP). To avail of this facility, a CP is required to register with NSCCL through this CM, which allots them a unique CP code. The CP and the CM are required to enter into an agreement as per specified format. Thereafter, all trades executed by such CP through any TM are required to have the CP code in the relevant field on the F&O trading system at the time of order entry. Such trades executed on behalf of a CP are required to be confirmed by their CM (and not the CM of the TM through whom the trade was executed), within the time specified by NSE, using the confirmation facility provided by NSCCL to the CMs in the F&O segment. Till such time the trade is confirmed by the CM of the CP, the same is considered as a trade of the TM and the responsibility of settlement of such trade vests with the CM of the TM. Once the trades have been confirmed by the CM of the CP, they form part of the obligations of the CM of the CP and they shall be responsible for all obligations arising out of such trades including the payment of margins and settlement of obligations.
Settlement Statistics
All derivative contracts are currently cash settled. The participants discharge their obligations through payment/receipt of cash. During 2008-09, such cash settlement amounted to Rs. 91,839.97 crore (US $ 18,025.51 million). The settlement of futures and options involved Rs.76,691.89 crore (US $ 15,052.38 million) and Rs. 15,148.08 (US $ 2,973.13 million) respectively. The details of settlement in the futures and options segment is presented in Table 6-11.
Risk Management System
NSCCL has developed a comprehensive risk containment mechanism for the F&O segment. The salient features of risk containment measures on the F&O segment are:
• The financial soundness of the members is the key to risk management. Therefore, the requirements for membership in terms of capital adequacy (net worth, security

deposits) are quite stringent. These requirements have already been explained in Table 2-1 in Chapter 2 of this publication.
• NSCCL charges an upfront initial margin for all the open positions of a Clearing Member (CM). It specifies the initial margin requirements for each futures/options contract on a daily basis. It follows VaR-based margining computed through SPAN. The CM in turn collects the initial margin from the trading members (TMs) and their respective clients.
• The open positions of the members are marked to market based on contract settlement price for each contract at the end of the day. The difference is settled in cash on a T+1 basis.
• NSCCL’s on-line position monitoring system monitors a CM’s open position on a real-time basis. Limits are set for each CM based on his effective deposits. The on-line position monitoring system generates alert messages whenever a CM reaches 70 %, 80 %, 90 % and a disablement message at 100 % of the limit. NSCCL monitors the CMs for Initial Margin violation, Exposure margin violation, while TMs are monitored for Initial Margin violation and position limit violation.
• CMs are provided a trading terminal for the purpose of monitoring the open positions of all the TMs clearing and settling through him. A CM may set limits for a TM clearing and settling through him. NSCCL assists the CM to monitor the intra-day limits set up by a CM and whenever a TM exceed the limits, it stops that particular TM from further trading.
• A member is alerted of his position to enable him to adjust his exposure or bring in additional capital. Margin violations result in disablement of trading facility for all TMs of a CM in case of a violation by the CM.
• A separate Settlement Guarantee Fund for this segment has been created out of deposits of members.
The most critical component of risk containment mechanism for F&O segment is the margining system and on-line position monitoring. The actual position monitoring and margining is carried out on-line through Parallel Risk Management System (PRISM) using SPAN® (Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk) system for the purpose of computation of on-line margins, based on the parameters defined by SEBI.
NSE - SPAN®
The objective of NSE-SPAN is to identify overall risk in a portfolio of all futures and options contracts for each member. The system treats futures and options contracts uniformly, while at the same time recognising the unique exposures associated with options portfolios, like extremely deep out-of-the-money short positions and inter-month risk.
133
Its over-riding objective is to determine the largest loss that a portfolio might reasonably be expected to suffer from one day to the next day based on 99% VaR methodology.
SPAN considers uniqueness of option portfolios. The following factors affect the value of an option:
i. Underlying market price.
ii. Volatility (variability) of underlying instrument, and
iii. Time to expiration.
iv. Interest rate
v. Strike price
As these factors change, the value of options maintained within a portfolio also changes. Thus, SPAN constructs scenarios of probable changes in underlying prices and volatilities in order to identify the largest loss a portfolio might suffer from one day to the next. It then sets the margin requirement to cover this one-day loss.
The complex calculations (e.g. the pricing of options) in SPAN are executed by NSCCL. The results of these calculations are called risk arrays. Risk arrays, and other necessary data inputs for margin calculation are provided to members daily in a file called the SPAN Risk Parameter file. Members can apply the data contained in the Risk Parameter files, to their specific portfolios of futures and options contracts, to determine their SPAN margin requirements.
Hence, members need not execute a complex option pricing calculations, which is performed by NSCCL. SPAN has the ability to estimate risk for combined futures and options portfolios, and also re-value the same under various scenarios of changing market conditions.
NSCCL generates six risk parameters file for a day taking into account price and volatilities at various time intervals and are provided on the website of the Exchange.
Margins
The margining system for F&O segment is as below:
• Initial margin: Margin in the F&O segment is computed by NSCCL upto client level for open positions of CMs/TMs. These are required to be paid up-front on gross basis at individual client level for client positions and on net basis for proprietary positions. NSCCL collects initial margin for all the open positions of a CM based on the margins computed by NSE-SPAN. A CM is required to ensure collection of adequate initial margin from his TMs up-front. The TM is required to collect adequate initial margins up-front from his clients.
• Premium Margin: In addition to Initial Margin, Premium Margin is charged at client level. This margin is required to be paid by a buyer of an option till the premium settlement is complete.
134
• Assignment Margin for Options on Securities: Assignment margin is levied in addition to initial margin and premium margin. It is required to be paid on assigned positions of CMs towards interim and final exercise settlement obligations for option contracts on individual securities, till such obligations are fulfilled. The margin is charged on the net exercise settlement value payable by a CM towards interim and final exercise settlement.
• Exposure Margins: Clearing members are subject to exposure margins in addition to initial margins.
• Client Margins: NSCCL intimates all members of the margin liability of each of their client. Additionally members are also required to report details of margins collected from clients to NSCCL, which holds in trust client margin monies to the extent reported by the member as having been collected form their respective clients.
Position Limits
The market wide limit of open position (in terms of the number of underlying stock) on futures and option contracts on a particular underlying stock should be 20% of the number of shares held by non-promoters in the relevant underlying security i.e. free–float holding. This limit is applicable on all open positions in all futures and option contracts on a particular underlying stock. The enforcement of the market wide limits is done in the following manner:
• At end of the day the exchange tests whether the market wide open interest for any scrip exceeds 95% of the market wide position limit for that scrip. In case it does so, the exchange takes note of open position of all client/TMs as at end of that day for that scrip and from next day onwards they can trade only to decrease their positions through offsetting positions.
• At the end of each day during which the ban on fresh positions is in force for any scrip, the exchange tests whether any member or client has increased his existing positions or has created a new position in that scrip. If so, that client is subject to a penalty equal to a specified percentage (or basis points) of the increase in the position (in terms of notional value). The penalty is recovered before trading begins next day.
• The normal trading in the scrip is resumed after the open outstanding position comes down to 80% or below of the market wide position limit. Further, the exchange also checks on a monthly basis, whether a stock has remained subject to the ban on new position for a significant part of the month consistently for three months. If so, then the exchange phases out derivative contracts on that underlying.

Currency Derivatives Segment 7

7Currency Derivatives Segment
The Reserve Bank of India in its Annual Policy Statement for the Year 2007-08 proposed to set up a Working Group on Currency Futures to study the international experience and suggest a suitable framework to operationalise the proposal, in line with the current legal and regulatory framework. This Group submitted its report in April, 2008. Following this, RBI and Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) jointly constituted a Standing Technical Committee to inter-alia evolve norms and oversee implementation of Exchange Traded Currency Derivatives. The Committee submitted its report on May 29, 2008. This report laid down the framework for the launch of Exchange Traded Currency Futures in terms of the eligibility norms for existing and new Exchanges and their Clearing Corporations/Houses, eligibility criteria for members of such Exchanges/Clearing Corporations/Houses, product design, risk management measures, surveillance mechanism and other related issues.
The Regulatory framework for currency futures trading in the country, as laid down by the regulators, provide that persons resident in India are permitted to participate in the currency futures market in India subject to directions contained in the Currency Futures (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2008, which have come into force with effect from August 6, 2008.
The membership of the currency futures market of a recognised stock exchange has been mandated to be separate from the membership of the equity derivative segment or the cash segment. Banks authorized by the Reserve Bank of India under section 10 of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 as ‘AD Category - I bank’ are permitted to become trading and clearing members of the currency futures market of the recognized stock exchanges, on their own account and on behalf of their clients, subject to fulfilling certain minimum prudential requirements pertaining to net worth, non-performing assets etc.
NSE was the first exchange to have received an in-principle approval from SEBI for setting up currency derivative segment. National Stock Exchange was the first exchange to launch Currency futures trading in India. The Currency Derivatives segment at NSE commenced operations on August 29, 2008 with the launch of currency futures trading in US Dollar-India Rupee (USD-INR).
Trading Mechanism
The Currency Derivatives trading system of NSE, called NEAT-CDS (National Exchange for Automated Trading – Currency Derivatives Segment) trading system, provides a fully automated screen-based trading for currency futures on a nationwide basis as well as an online monitoring and surveillance mechanism.
The NEAT-CDS system supports an order driven market, wherein orders match automatically. Order matching is essentially on the basis of security, its price and time. All quantity fields are in contracts and price in Indian rupees. The exchange notifies the
160
contract size and tick size for each of the contracts traded on this segment from time to time. When any order enters the trading system, it is an active order. It tries to find a match on the opposite side of the book. If it finds a match, a trade is generated. If it does not find a match, the order becomes passive and sits in the respective order book in the system.
Contract Specifications for Currency Futures
NSE trades Currency Derivatives contracts having near 12 calendar month expiry cycles. All contracts expire two working days prior to the last working day of every calendar month (subject to holiday calendars). This is also the last trading day for the expiring contract. The contract would cease to trade at 12:00 noon on the last trading day. A new contract with 12th month expiry would be introduced immediately ensuring availability of 12 monthly contracts for trading at any point.
The Instrument type: FUTCUR refers to 'Futures contract on currency' and Contract symbol: USDINR denotes a currency pair of 'US Dollars – Indian Rupee'. Each futures contract has a separate limit order book. All passive orders are stacked in the system in terms of price-time priority and trades take place at the passive order price (order which has come earlier and residing in the system). The best buy order for a given futures contract will be the order to buy at the highest price whereas the best sell order will be the order to sell at the lowest price.
The contract specification for US Dollars – Indian Rupee (USDINR) Currency Futures is summarized in the table below.

CLEARING AND SETTLEMENT
NSCCL undertakes clearing and settlement of all trades executed on the Currency Derivatives Segment (CDS) of the Exchange. It also acts as legal counterparty to all trades on this segment and guarantees their financial settlement. The Clearing and Settlement process comprises of three main activities, viz., Clearing, Settlement and Risk Management.
Clearing Entities
Clearing and settlement activities in the Currency Derivatives segment are undertaken by NSCCL with the help of the following entities:
Clearing members
In the Currency Derivatives segment, trading member-cum-clearing member, clear and settle their own trades as well as trades of other trading members (TMs). Besides, there is a special category of members, called professional clearing members (PCM) who clear and settle trades executed by TMs. The members clearing their own trades and trades of others, and the PCMs are required to bring in additional security deposits in respect of every TM whose trades they undertake to clear and settle.
Clearing banks
Funds settlement takes place through clearing banks. For the purpose of settlement all clearing members are required to open a separate bank account with NSCCL designated clearing bank for Currency Derivatives segment. The Clearing and Settlement process comprises of the following three main activities:
1) Clearing
2) Settlement
3) Risk Management
Clearing Mechanism
The clearing mechanism essentially involves working out open positions and obligations of clearing (trading-cum-clearing/professional clearing) members. This position is considered for exposure and daily margin purposes. The open positions of Clearing Members (CMs) are arrived at by aggregating the open positions of all the TMs and all custodial participants clearing through him, in contracts in which they have traded. A TM's open position is arrived at as the summation of his proprietary open position and clients' open positions, in the contracts in which he has traded. While entering orders on the trading system, TMs are required to identify the orders, whether proprietary (if they are their own trades) or client (if entered on behalf of clients) through 'Pro/Cli' indicator provided in the order entry screen. Proprietary positions are calculated on net basis (buy - sell) for each contract. Clients' positions are arrived at by summing together net (buy - sell) positions of each individual client. A TM's open position is the sum of proprietary open position, client open long position and client open short position.
164
Settlement Mechanism
All futures contracts are cash settled, i.e. through exchange of cash in Indian Rupees. The settlement amount for a CM is netted across all their TMs/clients, with respect to their obligations on MTM settlement. Currency futures contracts have two types of settlements, the MTM settlement which happens on a continuous basis at the end of each day, and the final settlement which happens on the last trading day of the futures contract.
• Mark to Market settlement (MTM Settlement):
All futures contracts for each member are marked-to-market (MTM) to the daily settlement price of the relevant futures contract at the end of each day. The profits/losses are computed as the difference between:
1. The trade price and the day's settlement price for contracts executed during the day but not squared up.
2. The previous day's settlement price and the current day's settlement price for brought forward contracts.
3. The buy price and the sell price for contracts executed during the day and squared up.
The CMs who have a loss are required to pay the mark-to-market (MTM) loss amount in cash which is in turn is passed on to the CMs who have made a MTM profit. This is known as daily mark-to-market settlement. CMs are responsible to collect and settle the daily MTM profits/losses incurred by the TMs and their clients clearing and settling through them. Similarly, TMs are responsible to collect/pay losses/profits from/to their clients by the next day. The pay-in and pay-out of the mark-to-market settlement are effected on the day following the trade day. In case a futures contract is not traded on a day, or not traded during the last half hour, a ‘theoretical settlement price’ is computed. After completion of daily settlement computation, all the open positions are reset to the daily settlement price. Such positions become the open positions for the next day.
• Final settlement for futures
On the last trading day of the futures contracts, after the close of trading hours, NSCCL marks all positions of a CM to the final settlement price and the resulting profit/loss is settled in cash. Final settlement loss/profit amount is debited/ credited to the relevant CM's clearing bank account on T+2 working day following last trading day of the contract (Contract expiry Day).
• Settlement prices for futures
Daily settlement price on a trading day is the closing price of the respective futures contracts on such day. The closing price for a futures contract is currently calculated
165
as the last half an hour weighted average price of the contract in the Currency Derivatives Segment of NSE. The final settlement price is the RBI reference rate on the last trading day of the futures contract. All open positions shall be marked to market on the final settlement price. Such marked to market profit / loss shall be paid to / received from clearing members.
Settlement Statistics
During August 2008- March 2009, cash settlement for currency futures amounted to Rs.367.37 crore (US $ 72.10 million). The details of settlement statistics for currency futures is presented in Table 7-2.
Risk Management
NSCCL has developed a comprehensive risk containment mechanism for the Currency Derivatives segment. The salient features of risk containment mechanism on the Currency Derivatives segment are:
1. The financial soundness of the members is the key to risk management. Therefore, the requirements for membership in terms of capital adequacy (net worth, security deposits) are quite stringent. These requirements have been explained in the table 2-1 D of Chapter 2. Clearing member pays Rs. 10 lakhs for clearing every trading member’s trades in cash & non-cash form.
2. NSCCL charges an upfront initial margin for all the open positions of a Clearing Member (CM). It specifies the initial margin requirements for each futures contract on a daily basis. It also follows a value at risk (VaR) based margining through SPAN®. The CM in turn collects the initial margin from the TMs and their respective clients.
3. The open positions of the members are marked to market based on contract settlement price for each contract at the end of the day. The difference is settled in cash on a T+1 basis.
4. NSCCL's on-line position monitoring system monitors the member open positions and margins on a real-time basis vis-à-vis the deposits provided by the CM/ limits set for the TM by the CM. The on-line position monitoring system generates alerts whenever the margins of a member reaches X% of the capital deposited by the CM or limits set for the TM by the CM. NSCCL monitors the CMs for initial margin and extreme loss margin violations, while TMs are monitored for initial margin violation.
5. CMs are provided a trading terminal for the purpose of monitoring the open positions of all the TMs clearing and settling through him. A CM may set limits for a TM clearing and settling through him. NSCCL assists the CM to monitor the

intra-day limits set up by a CM and whenever a TM exceed the limits, it stops that particular TM from further trading.
6. A member is alerted of his position to enable him to adjust his position or bring in additional capital. Margin violations result in withdrawal of trading facility for all TMs of a CM in case of a violation by the CM.
7. A separate Settlement Guarantee Fund for this segment has been created out of the capital of members.
The most critical component of risk containment mechanism for the Currency Derivatives Segment is the margining system and on-line position monitoring. The actual position monitoring and margining is carried out on-line through Parallel Risk Management System (PRISM). PRISM uses SPAN® (Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk) system for the purpose of computation of on-line margins, based on the parameters defined by SEBI.
Margining System
NSCCL has developed a comprehensive risk containment mechanism for the Currency Derivatives segment. The most critical component of a risk containment mechanism is the online position monitoring and margining system. The actual margining is done on-line, on an intra-day basis using PRISM (Parallel Risk Management System) which is the real-time position monitoring and risk management system. The risk of each trading and clearing member is monitored on a real-time basis and alerts/disablement messages are generated if the member crosses the set limits. NSCCL uses the SPAN® (Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk) system, a portfolio based margining system, for the purpose of calculating initial margins.
Types of margins
The margining system for Currency Derivatives segment is explained below:
a) Initial margin: Margin in the Currency Derivatives segment is computed by NSCCL upto client level for open positions of CMs/TMs. These are required to be paid up-front on gross basis at individual client level for client positions and on net basis for proprietary positions. NSCCL collects initial margin for all the open positions of a CM based on the margins computed by NSCCL- SPAN®. A CM is required to ensure collection of adequate initial margin from his TMs up-front. The TM is required to collect adequate initial margins up-front from his clients.
b) Extreme loss margin of 1% on the value of the gross open positions shall be adjusted from the liquid assets of the clearing member on an on line, real time basis.
SPAN® is a registered trademark of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) used here under licence.
167
c) Client margins: NSCCL intimates all members of the margin liability of each of their client. Additionally members are also required to report details of margins collected from clients to NSCCL, which holds in trust client margin monies to the extent reported by the member as having been collected form their respective clients.
Position Limit for Currency Futures:
Client Level Position Limit
The client level position limit shall be applicable where the gross open position of the client across all contracts exceeds 6% of the total open interest or 10 million USD, whichever is higher.

8Investor Services, Arbitration
Investors are the backbone of the securities market. Protection of their interests is paramount for NSE. In furtherance of their interests, NSE has put in place systems to ensure availability of adequate, up-to-date and correct information to investors to enable them to take informed decisions. It ensures that critical and price-sensitive information reaching the exchange is made available to all classes of investor at the same point of time. Such price-sensitive information as bonus announcements, mergers, new line of business, etc. received from the companies is disseminated to all the market participants through the network of NSE terminals all over India. Action is initiated by the Exchange where any kind of price-sensitive information is not provided to the Exchange at the prescribed time. It ascertains the veracity of rumours and disseminates facts in the interest of investors. In an attempt to ease the existing system of information dissemination by the listed companies, NSE launched the electronic interface for listed companies in August 2004. Under the new system, all corporate announcements including that of Board meetings which needs to be disclosed to the market is handled electronically in a straight through and hands free manner. It also conducts various seminars and programs for the investors all over the country with a view to educate them on their rights and obligations. They are also made aware of the precautions they need to take while dealing in the securities market. It makes an audit trail available on request for all transactions executed on NSE to enable investors to counter-check trade details for the trades executed on his behalf by the member. It has also prescribed and makes effort to ensure the implementation of various safeguards like time schedules for issuing contract notes, for receiving funds and securities purchased by investors, segregation of client funds and securities from those of members, etc. The Exchange has also launched a facility to verify trades on the NSE website. Using this facility, an investor who had received a contract note from the trading member of the Exchange can check whether the trade has been executed.
Investor Services
NSE has put in place a system for redressal of investor grievances for matters/issues related to/against trading members/companies. The Investor Services Cell of NSE is manned by a team of professionals possessing relevant experience in the areas of securities markets, company and legal affairs, and specially trained to identify problems faced by the investor and to find and effect a solution quickly. It takes up complaints in respect of trades executed on the NSE through its NEAT terminal and routed through the NSE trading member or SEBI registered sub-broker of NSE trading member and trades pertaining to companies traded on NSE. The status of receipt and disposal of investor grievances by the Exchange is presented in Table 8-1.
Investor Protection Fund

172
investor claims, which may arise out of non settlement of obligations by the trading member, who has been declared a defaulter, in respect of trades executed on the Exchange. The maximum amount of claim payable from the Fund to the investor is reviewed by Exchange periodically maximum amount payable out of IPF was Rs. 10 lakhs upto December 31, 2007 and same has been enhanced to Rs. 11 Lakhs in respect of claims against members declared defaulter after January 1, 2008.

9Knowledge Initiative
Several initiatives have been taken over the last few years to promote the skills of market participants, to educate and protect the investors and to promote high quality research about the working of the securities market. In line with this NSE has launched several initiatives to strengthen the knowledge base of the Indian securities market and to protect investor interest. Major initiatives in this area are discussed below:
NSE’s Certification in Financial Markets (NCFM)
Taking into account international experience and the needs of the Indian financial markets NSE introduced in 1998 a unique testing and certification programme called National Stock Exchange’s Certification in Financial Markets (NCFM). This was introduced with a view for protecting interests of investors in financial markets and more importantly, for minimizing risks of losses arising out of deficient understanding of markets and instruments. NCFM is an on-line testing system which tests the practical knowledge and skills required to operate in the financial markets in a secure and unbiased manner and awards certificates based on relative merits thus ensuring that the caliber of persons entering this field is kept high in the best interests of a mature and vibrant market.
NCFM, has become extremely popular and is sought by the candidates as well as employers due to its unique on-line testing and certification programme. It offers all the certifications mandated by SEBI, NSDL, AMFI, FIMMDA and NSE itself. NCFM offers a comprehensive range of modules covering many different areas in finance (Table 8-1). The entire process from generation of question paper, testing, assessing, scores reporting and certifying is fully automated. It allows tremendous flexibility in terms of testing centres, test dates and test timing and provides easy accessibility and convenience to candidates.
The number of centers from where the NCFM tests are conducted has increased in the recent past. Currently the NCFM tests are conducted from around 100 centers across the country.
Launch of New NCFM Modules
On January 7, 2009, “Mutual Funds : A Beginners’ Module’ was launched under NCFM with a view to educate and create awareness about the role and function of mutual funds, the different mutual fund products being offered in the markets, risk profile of different products, the advantages of investing in mutual funds. This module is useful for first time investors in mutual funds, young students and anyone wanting to know about the basics of mutual funds.
On February 2, 2009 “Options Trading Strategies Module” was launched under NCFM with a view to impart knowledge on the Options trading strategies so that investors can manage their risks better and use these strategies to enhance their income potential under different market conditions. This module has been introduced to explain some of
178
the important and basic Options strategies. There are 22 Options strategies covered in this module and the tests are based on these 22 strategies.
NCFM Tests conducted in regional languages
All the NCFM modules were initially in English language. In response to the requests received for tests to be conducted in other languages as well, NSE introduced the Derivatives Market (Dealers) Module in Gujarati and Hindi which was launched on February 15, 2008 and June 19, 2008 respectively. In addition to this, the Capital Market (Dealers) module test in Gujarati and Hindi languages was introduced on February 19, 2009.
CBSE – NSE joint certification in Financial markets
CBSE and NSE introduced a joint certification in Financial Markets for std. XI and XII. The course, titled “Financial Markets Management” had been introduced by CBSE during 2007-2008. This was the first such exercise to introduce financial literacy in schools. The new course comprises of various subjects, such as Languages, Economics, Business Studies, Accounting for Business etc. Besides these, two financial market related subjects, “Introduction to Financial Markets – I” and “Introduction to Financial Markets – II” are taught in Std. XI and XII respectively. Students opting for the course are required to take the NCFM on-line tests in “Financial Markets : A Beginners Module” in Std. XI and both “Capital Markets (Dealers) Module and Derivatives Markets (Dealers) Module”, in Std. XII.
NSE Research Initiative
In order to improve market efficiency further and to set international benchmarks in securities industry, NSE administers a scheme called the NSE Research Initiative. The initiative fosters research which can support and facilitate stock exchanges to design market microstructure, participants to frame their strategies in the market place, help regulators to frame regulations, policy makers to formulate policy and broaden the horizon of knowledge about the securities market. The initiative has received a tremendous response from the academics as well as the market participants from within and outside the country. The studies completed/under progress under the initiative is presented in Table 8-2. The completed research papers and the paper under progress are provided on the NSE website www.nseindia.com.
Investor Awareness and Education Programmes
NSE has been carrying out investor awareness seminars on a regular basis in various parts of the country. During the seminars, the investors are educated about their rights and obligations, new financial products, investment avenues and certification programmes. Various informative booklets and material are also distributed at the seminars. Besides covering the investors, the Exchange also reaches out to a larger number of persons across the country as a part of a Financial Literacy campaign. The purpose is to educate the masses about investing, various investment avenues, benefits of investing in equities and
179
upgrade the financial literacy and awareness among the masses. The higher secondary schools and colleges is also one of the focus areas in this exercise since an early education on investing helps the individual to take proper decision while investing in future. Further, this also helps in increasing the overall equity investor base in the country over a period of time with more people being acquainted with the benefits of investing in the equity markets. During 2008-09, there were 606 investor awareness and education programmes conducted by NSE.
National Institute of Securities Market (NISM)
Pursuant to the announcement made by the Finance Minister in his Budget Speech in February 2005, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) established the National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM) in Mumbai. SEBI, by establishing NISM, has articulated the desire expressed by the Indian government to promote securities market education and research.
Towards accomplishing the desire of Government of India and vision of SEBI, NISM has launched an effort to deliver financial and securities education at various levels and across various segments in India and abroad. To implement its objectives, NISM has established six distinct schools to cater the educational needs of various constituencies such as investor, issuers, intermediaries, regulatory staff, policy makers, academia and future professionals of securities markets.
NISM seeks to add to market quality through educational initiatives. It is an autonomous body governed by its Board of Governors. An international Advisory Council provides strategic guidance to NISM. NISM brings out various publications on securities markets with a view to enhance knowledge levels of participants in the securities industry. NISM is mandated to develop and implement certification examinations for professionals employed in various segments of the Indian securities markets.
Launch of Currency Derivatives Certification Examination by NISM
NISM has launched the Currency Derivatives Certification Examination to create a common minimum knowledge benchmark for persons working in the Currency Derivatives market segment, in order to enable a better understanding of currency markets and exchange traded currency future products, better quality investor service, operational process efficiency and risk controls. As per SEBI requirement, all approved users and sales personnel of trading members of currency derivatives segments of recognised stock exchanges are required to obtain the necessary certification by August 10, 2009. NISM has appointed NSE as one of the test administrators for conducting Currency Derivatives Certification Examination.
