NSE, India's largest stock bourse, witnessed a blackout on Wednesday across segments due to connectivity issues. The bourse said it depends on two telecom service providers for connectivity, and both failed simultaneously resulting in the outage.
However, the broader Indian markets were not impacted, as communication lines at BSE continued even as NSE faced troubles.
In June 2020, NSE had suffered a technical glitch. At that time, its bank option segment prices were not reflecting on the terminal linked to the exchange. In September 2019 too, the bourse's system faced a trading outage as investors were unable to place orders in the final minutes of the trade.
