HistoryTV18 is set to premiere an exclusive documentary titled ‘NSE: Enabling a Billion Dreams’ that chronicles the transformative impact of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) on India’s financial landscape.
The documentary is scheduled to air on November 3 at 7:05 PM and will run for an hour. It traces the NSE’s remarkable journey from its founding in 1992 to its current status as one of the world’s largest stock exchanges.
The film delves into the NSE’s evolution, highlighting key milestones such as the introduction of electronic trading systems in 1994 and the establishment of India’s first Clearing Corporation. These innovations have significantly reduced settlement times and transformed the capital markets in India. Today, the NSE is recognized as the world’s largest stock exchange by order volume, handling over 50% of all global trades on several trading days. This growth has propelled India’s market capitalization from ₹4 lakh crore three decades ago to over ₹440 lakh crore today.
Featuring insights from NSE’s MD and CEO Ashishkumar Chauhan, along with financial leaders like Uday Kotak and Raamdeo Agrawal, the documentary showcases how NSE’s advancements—such as the T+1 settlement cycle and the dematerialization of shares—have made the Indian market one of the fastest in global trade settlements.
Avinash Kaul, CEO of Broadcast Network18, emphasized, “At HistoryTV18, our mission is to bring impactful stories that resonate with our viewers. Our documentary ‘NSE: Enabling a Billion Dreams’ highlights the NSE’s role in transforming India’s financial landscape.
