India, 125 years of experience seem to be proud milestone. A lot has changed since 1875 when 318 persons became members of what tody is called "Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd." by paying a princely amount of Re. 1.

BSE in 1986 came out with a stock Index that subsequently became the barometer of the Indian Stock Market.

The base year of Sensex is 1978-79.

The launch of SENSEX in 1986 was later followed up in Jan 1989 by introduction of BSE NAtional Index (Base : 1983-84 = 100) It was renamed as BSE 100 index from Oct 14,1996 and since then it is calculated taking into consideration only the prices of stock listed in BSE.Type your answer here...
