By way of a circular dated 12 January 2015, the Securities and
Exchange Board of India has directed stock exchanges to implement a
stronger "circuit breaker mechanism", which includes
provisions to track the movement of the Bombay Stock Exchange's
Sensex or the National Stock Exchange's Nifty indices after
every trade. The circuit breaker system will stop trading in all
equity and equity derivative markets in the event of a large swing
in share movements on Nifty or Sensex.
