Good Morning Market Enthusiasts, let’s start our day with a fact about Indian Stock Market!
Fact: The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is the oldest stock exchange in Asia.
-
Founded: 1875
-
Original name: The Native Share & Stock Brokers’ Association
-
It started under a banyan tree in front of Mumbai’s Town Hall, where a group of brokers used to gather to trade stocks informally.

Let me know if you want more vintage stories — like the Harshad Mehta scam or early IPOs of iconic Indian companies.
