SEBI responding to the trading halt has questioned by India&rsquo;s largest bourse NSE on why&nbsp;trading did not migrate to the disaster recovery site.&nbsp;&nbsp;The DR site is a&nbsp;backup&nbsp;site which is located in another city and is a replica of the main production site in Mumbai&nbsp;
In&nbsp;fact, the National Stock Exchange had informed brokers in October that for two complete trading&nbsp;days,&nbsp;September 28 &amp; 29 the bourse had operated entirely out of the disaster recovery site, notably without any issues.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ironically the next round of testing is due end of March.
SEBI has sought a complete report including the details of internal assessments which led to the 4-hour trading halt&nbsp;on Wednesday.&nbsp;SEBI however reassured investors that&nbsp;the market regulator&nbsp;would take&nbsp;all necessary measures to ensure rectification of the underlying causes&nbsp;including addressing institutional deficiencies.&nbsp;

After a long wait, the insurance regulator IRDAI has given its final nod to Axis Bank and subsidiaries, picking up a 12% stake in Max Life Insurance. This will now finally let Axis be a joint venture partner in the company, something that the entities had announced in April 2020.
Now that all the pins have fallen in place for the deal, it also allows Axis entities to raise their stake further by 7% which they intend to do in a couple of years.
Max Life is the fourth-largest private life insurer in India, while Axis is India&rsquo;s third-largest private bank.

India&rsquo;s largest exchange has some explaining to do to the market regulator and the finance ministry. Reports indicate SEBI and Fin Min have sought a detailed report from India&rsquo;s largest exchange on the technical glitch that halted trade for over 4 hours.&nbsp;
National Stock Exchange is expected to submit it&rsquo;s report before Friday but this may just be the preliminary submission. This is not a first for the&nbsp;NSE, the exchange halted trade for 3 hours in 2017 again due to a technical glitch.&nbsp;
 In fact SEBI had slapped a Rs 50 lakh fine on NSE in 2019 when NSE NOW, a trading terminal for traders, was not working properly in Gujarat, Rajasthan and in some parts of Maharashtra.Infact&nbsp;SEBI in it&rsquo;s annual report last year had indicated the need of a plan to compensate investors for losses due to technical glitches.&nbsp;

“Government has no business to be in business” that was the clear and concise message from PM Modi as the govt batted aggressively for privatisation.

&ldquo;Government has no business to be in business&rdquo; that was the clear&nbsp; and concise message from PM Modi as the govt batted aggressively for privatisation. Putting the focus back onto development PM Modi reiterated that being in businesses distracts the govt from its main goals.
With over 100 assets identified in its asset monetisation pipeline the Prime Minister reminded India Inc that the Rs 2.5 lakh crore that they are hoping to raise via divestment will be dedicated to development goals. PM Modi added that the government will be&nbsp;having&nbsp;public sector companies only in key strategic sectors and that too only minimum companies. &nbsp;
 There were about 249 PSUs in 2018-19. Of these, 70 were loss-making, with combined losses to the tune of Rs 31,000 cr.&nbsp;

Not even an hour into trade at 10:06 am there was confusion across dealing rooms as the headline Index Nifty seemed to have been stuck at a single value and was not updating . It was not long before traders realised there was a systemic problem as the none of the Indices listed across the NSE were updating.
 At 11:40 for the second time in the last 5 years the National Stock Exchange halted trade across segment cash and F&amp;O segment citing a technical glitch.&nbsp;
 What followed was just whispers of communication confusion with no official word from the bourse traders speculated what would happen to open positions just a day ahead of expiry.&nbsp;
 3 hours into the trading halt India&rsquo;s largest brokerage Zerodha finally decided to layout a gameplan for its users as NSE had still not provided any clarity. The discount broker tweeted Plan of action: If NSE isn't back up by 2.45 pm, we will block all new MIS &amp; CO orders for the day and attempt to square off all equity MIS &amp; CO positions on BSE. Unfortunately, we will not be able to do anything with intraday F&amp;O positions if NSE isn't back up
 It was just minutes before close that NSE announced that trading hours would be extended by both exchanges from 3:$5 upto 5 pm. The message was short and for many almost too late . Zerodha sent out a message to their clients &nbsp;if NSE had informed brokers of a potential reopening or extension of trading hours, at least by 3 PM, we, along with many other brokers would not have had to take risk mitigation measures and square off positions on BSE. Unfortunately, because there were no updates given to brokers, we had no other choice. The last minute notification of the trading extension at 3:17 PM came a little too late.
