BSE Ltd will directly manage the licensing of its market data products for international clients starting January 1, 2027, concluding the current arrangement where Deutsche Börse AG handled these services. The exchange confirmed that international clients will continue to receive BSE Market Data Products without any service interruption. Domestic clients based in India will see no change, continuing to access data directly from BSE.

The transition marks the end of a market data service agreement originally signed in October 2013 between BSE and Deutsche Börse AG. Under the previous agreement, Deutsche Börse AG was responsible for the sales and marketing of all BSE market data products to customers outside India, while BSE served all domestic clients directly. Both entities are collaborating to ensure a smooth migration process.

To facilitate the change, BSE has requested all international clients seeking to continue receiving BSE India Information Products after December 31, 2026, to contact datafeed.sales@bseindia.com with their requests. The exchange provides a range of data products, including real-time, Tick-by-Tick (TBT), end-of-day (EOD), and historical marketplace data.

BSE, established as Asia’s oldest stock exchange, operates as the world’s largest exchange by the number of listed companies. Its benchmark index, the Sensex, serves as a barometer for the Indian economy and is tracked by investors globally. The exchange offers trading platforms for equity, debt instruments, derivatives, and mutual funds.
