NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED
Nineteenth Annual Report

June 2010 Introduction of Indian Depository Receipt


IDRs are negotiable receipts issued by an Indian bank or trust company, the depositary, to evidence ownership of
a stated number of shares of the securities of a foreign company that the company or shareholder has deposited
with the depositary's branch office, affiliate, or agent in the foreign country. IDR has not only given international
market exposure to Indian investors but also created a new asset class for the investor.
The first IDR of Standard Chartered Bank is listed and available for trading on Exchange on June 11, 2010.

July 2010 Real-time dissemination of India VIX


The Exchange started real - time calculation of India Volatility Index (India VIX) w.e.f. July 19, 2010. Volatility
Index is a measure of market's expectation of volatility over the near term. Volatility is often described as the
"rate and magnitude of changes in prices" and in finance often referred to as risk.
India VIX is a volatility index computed by NSE based on the order book of NIFTY Options. For this, the best
bid-ask quotes of near and next-month NIFTY options contracts which are traded on the F&O segment of NSE
are used. India VIX indicates the investor's perception of the market's volatility in the near term i.e. it depicts the
expected market volatility over the next 30 calendar days. Higher the India VIX values, higher the expected
volatility and vice-versa. India VIX uses the computation methodology of CBOE, with suitable amendments to
adapt to the NIFTY options order book using cubic splines, etc. Investors use it to gauge the market volatility and
base their investment decisions accordingly.

October 2010 Launch of Call Auction in Pre - Open Session


The Exchange has introduced call auction in pre-open session w.e.f. October 18, 2010. Pre open phase is the
session prior to the continuous trading. The session allows liquidity to be pooled during this session by allowing
the participants to place buy as well as sell orders. No matching takes place when the market is in pre-open phase.
The users are allowed to enter / modify / cancel orders. Pre-open session provides a trading facility where orders
are batched together for simultaneous execution at a predefined time and at a single price which best equates the
aggregated buy and sell. The pre-open session helps in better discovery of opening price, minimises opening
volatility of prices of securities and also allows for overnight news in securities to be suitably reflected in the
opening price.
The salient features of call-auction in pre-open session are given below:-
• The pre-open session is introduced in securities forming part of Nifty indices.
• The pre-open session is for 15 minutes; out of which first 8 minutes is for order entry with last minutes
will have a random closure. 4 minutes for order matching and trade confirmation and 3 minutes is buffer
timings.
• The equilibrium price of pre-open is an opening price of a security. The equilibrium price is a price at
which maximum value is executable.
• All unmatched order in pre-open is shifted to normal market.
• Risk management at order level in pre-open session.

1.8 Surveillance System


The principal objective of surveillance function of the Exchange is to help maintain fair and efficient markets for
securities.
The Exchange achieves this objective through a combination of state of the art surveillance system, wide ranging
use of cutting edge data analytics and experienced team of analysts.
The surveillance system which monitors trading activity at every order and trade level has been developed piecing
together experience gathered over the years. The system generates alerts based on multiple parameters using a
complex algorithm. The parameters and the thresholds beyond which alerts are generated have been decided after
detailed statistical analysis and back testing.
A brief perspective on how complex the task of surveillance has become over the years is given as under:-
On an average about 3.40 crore orders are entered and about 70 lakh trades get executed in a day on the capital
market segment of the Exchange. This translates to an average of about 1500 orders and about 300 trades every
second. Added to this, there are about 1.28 crore investors registered with trading members of the Exchange for
trading on capital market segment. Unlike most advanced markets in US and Europe, retail investors directly
participate in the market. On NSE more than 40% of total trading activity is on account of individual clients.
Surveillance system has been designed and tuned to sift through this gigantic mix of orders, trades & investors to
generate meaningful alerts that point to possible market abuse.
Wherever market abuse practice is suspected, the system can replay the market at a much slower pace so as to
enable the analysts to examine the identified deviant activity order by order to piece together evidence for proving
manipulation.
The exchanges in India are in a unique position to identify and monitor trading activity at client level unlike most
markets in US and Europe where exchanges have access only up to the first layer of market participants, namely,
the trading members. During the period from April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011, 248 reports on the investigations
conducted were completed of which 215 reports were submitted to SEBI.
NSE's expertise in putting data analytics tools to optimum use to mine this wealth of data to establish patterns in
trading activity at client level enables the Exchange to quickly identify potential market abuse and refer the

17
NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED
Nineteenth Annual Report

matter to the Regulator. The Exchange has implemented series of pattern recognition models which unearth
manipulative activity such as Front running, insider trading, circular trading, etc.

2. SERVICES TO INVESTORS
The Exchange attaches high importance to investor safety and investor empowerment. Towards this direction, in
order to spread awareness about market, products, operational aspects of market, etc., the Exchange regularly
conducts investor awareness programs in various cities of the country. During the year, the Exchange conducted
1,382 programs. During the year, the Exchange also issued 371 investor alerts in 37 newspapers and in 8 languages.
Important Investor Awareness message showcasing various do's and don'ts were broadcasted over electronic
media in form of animation films in popular TV shows and through investor friendly messages on FM Radio
channels.
In addition, to enhance general safety levels, the Exchange has started a new service to disseminate trade information
directly to investors through emails and sms on their registered email ids and mobile numbers. The Exchange has
also has a user friendly trade verification facility on its website wherein common investor can check the trades
that have taken place in their account.
In order to reach out to a mass, the Exchange has initiated the idea of investor education and financial information
on wheels wherein Rajdhani Express is being used to disseminate information on markets, products, flagship
index, etc., to help investors understand how to use product & protect themselves. This train is currently running
on Delhi - Sealdah (Kolkata) route and in Delhi - Chennai/Bangalore/ Trivandrum routes. The Exchange constantly
endeavors to resolve disputes between investor and the trading members through its intervention.

the newly developed SMFS (Shared Memory File System) in the post trade (PT) layer of the FO trading system.
In parallel, the earlier Stratus proprietary messaging solution (VMA) has been migrated to a new generation
messaging solution (29West) for communication across various layers of the Trading system. 29West messaging
is a high throughput, low latency solution that is being used to achieve throughput of over 100K messages /sec.
These implementations enable a low latency and high throughput architecture. The parallel redevelopment of the
matching engine (retooling project), currently underway, will result in a final capacity of 100,000 messages/sec.
Global Benchmarks
In keeping with global trends, the Exchange has provided members a co-location facility for low latency high
frequency trading. The Co-location phase II data center is an international standard, state of the art, highly robust,
resilient and secure infrastructure data center, built at the BKC premises. This Phase II data center has a capacity
of 54 full racks and 28 half racks.
With the advent of co-location, there was a market need for real-time data to be disseminated to these high
frequency algorithmic trading members, to enable them build the order book and help their algorithms to work
optimally. Tick by Tick data provides the latest order (new, modified and cancelled) and trade information to the
market. The Exchange has offered a new category of connectivity (Category T) for market data broadcast called
Tick by Tick.
New Product Launches
New business products like Securities lending and Borrowing (SLBM), Call auction in Pre-Open (CM segment),
Currency options in CD segment, India VIX, MFSS SIP, TAP on Linux, NSE Electronic Application Processing
System (NEAPS) have been introduced.
Customer focused self-services
Several initiatives have been taken to provide self service capabilities and improved customer experience. Some
of these are online client-code/trade modifications, Limit Setting and Auto enablement, Auto Give-ups and
Margining Professional Clearing Member (PCM) on T-Day.
Operational Excellence
With the increase in average number of order messages per day in the F&O segment from around 80 million to
100 million, the F&O trading capacity was increased by adding a third market machine (until the release of
Retooling project). With this, the capacity of FO Trading system has increased from 12,000 to 18,000 order
messages per second. CM trading capacity was also increased by adding a fourth market machine. With this, the
capacity of CM Trading system has increased from 5,000 to 7,000 order messages per second.
The time taken by the Securities Pay-in/Pay-out cycle of the settlement cycle on T+2 day was about 90 minutes.
The complete process was re-engineered along with the workflow and appropriate automation to reduce the
end-to-end time from 90 minutes to 3-5 minutes.

NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED
Nineteenth Annual Report

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Economic & Business environment


The Indian Economy growth in 2010-11 had been swift and broad-based. The economy regained its pre-crisis
growth trajectory. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of India is estimated to have grown at 8.6 per cent in
2010-11 in real terms. In 2010-11 agriculture is estimated to have grown at 5.4 per cent, industry at 8.1 per cent
and services at 9.6 per cent. All three sectors are contributing to the consolidation of growth. More importantly,
the economy has shown remarkable resilience to both external and domestic shocks. Fiscal consolidation has
been impressive. This year saw significant progress in critical institutional reforms that would set the pace for
double-digit growth in the near future.
With the strong innate economic fundamentals, India continues to be the highly attractive destination for investment,
globally. India is today rated as one of the most attractive investment destinations across the globe. The UNCTAD
World Investment Report (WIR) 2010, in its analysis of the global trends and sustained growth of Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) inflows, has reported India to be the second most attractive location for FDI for 2010-2012.
The cumulative amount of FDI equity inflows from April 2000 to January 2011 stood at US$ 193.74 billion,
according to the data released by the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). The huge increase
in investment mirrors the foreign investors' faith in the Indian markets. Even the net investments by FIIs for the
period November 1992 till March 31, 2011 was US $ 121.56 billion. The forex reserves increased to US $ 303
billion at end of March 25, 2011.
During 2010-11, the Indian securities industry also experienced a number of global, technological and regulatory
developments. In addition, demands for new products and services, particularly new asset classes and need for
faster and more cost efficient trade execution increased substantially.
Thus, the year 2010-11 witnessed major imperatives such as Launch of new products & services, Technological
advancements, Regulatory developments etc.

Outlook
The Indian economy is expected to operate close to its trend growth rate, powered mainly by domestic factors.
The investment rate has exceeded 36 per cent of GDP. Even with an incremental capital-output ratio of 4, this
should enable the Indian economy to grow at 9 per cent. Thus, the broad macroeconomic parameters relating to
savings and investment are conducive for achieving a high growth rate. Aligned with this, as a natural fall out, it
is expected that the investment momentum within the economy would continue at an accelerated pace. This
would have a significantly positive impact on the capital markets. Similarly, the existing products and asset
classes which would continue to evince interest, it is expected that there would be attraction towards new asset
classes as well. New products and services, technological innovation and strong risk management framework
would continue to be the key drivers for the securities market.
Risks and concerns
While the fundamentals of Indian economy remain strong, the domestic capital market and especially the inflow
of foreign funds are to a large extent susceptible to the developments in the global economy. Any adverse
development could have a negative impact on the domestic markets. Also post global financial crisis, much of the
recovery in the developed economies was driven by temporary measures such as fiscal stimulus and the like.
Some of these countries are considering withdrawal of these fiscal stimuli which could affect the growth levels in
those economies it could have adverse impact on the Indian capital market. However, with vibrant growth
expectations within the country these risks would be largely mitigated.

5. Risk Management
(i) Capital Market & Securities Lending & Borrowing segments
NSCCL has laid requisite focus towards risk management by putting in place an On-line Position
monitoring system which has successfully and efficaciously addressed the market risks. Margins
are computed on an on-line real time basis at client level. The Value at Risk (VAR) Margins are
applied which is statistically arrived at covering 99% value at risk.
With effect from April 21, 2008, margins in Capital market are being levied on institutional
trades also. These margins are levied on T+1 day in the Capital Market segment.

(ii) F&O & Currency Derivatives segments


NSCCL has in place many risk management measures including monitoring of exposure on a
real time basis through the system called PRISM (Parallel Risk Management System) and also
end of day monitoring of client level exposures.
The most critical component of PRISM is the online real time client level, portfolio based
margining and monitoring system. The robustness of the system is time tested and has proved
its efficient handling of volatile situations effectively, on numerous occasions in the past and
especially on highly volatile days in the year. The actual margining and position monitoring is
done on-line, on an intra-day basis. NSCCL uses the SPAN (Standard Portfolio Analysis of
Risk) system for the purpose of margining, which is a portfolio based system.
SPAN is a registered trademark of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, used herein under License.
The objective of SPAN is to identify overall risk in a portfolio of futures and options contracts
for each member. The system treats futures and options contracts uniformly, while at the same
time recognising the unique exposures associated with options portfolios like extremely deep
out-of-the-money short positions and inter-month risk. As SPAN is used to determine margin

requirements, its overriding objective is to determine the largest loss that a portfolio might
reasonably be expected to suffer from one day to the next day. The parameters used in the
computation of margins are revised six times a day.
There have been no defaults during the financial year.

7. Mutual Fund Service System (MFSS)


Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) vide circular dated November 9, 2010 issued revised
guidelines for facilitating transactions in Mutual Fund schemes through the Stock Exchange
infrastructure. As on March 31, 2011, 25 mutual fund houses with 1,338 schemes were enabled
under the revised MFSS scheme.
(i) Subscription
The average daily value of funds settled for subscription of mutual fund units for the period
January 1, 2011 to March 31, 2011 was Rs. 112.54 lakhs. The highest settlement value was
Rs. 1,800.98 lakhs and was observed on January 25, 2011. The average daily quantity of units
allotted under subscription for the period January 1, 2011 to March 31, 2011 was 3.89 lakhs.
The highest quantity allotted was 20.26 lakhs and was observed on March 17, 2011.
(ii) Redemption
The average daily value of funds settled for redemption of mutual fund units for the period
January 1, 2011 to March 31, 2011 was Rs. 45.15 lakhs. The highest settlement value was
Rs. 282.55 lakhs and was observed on February 18, 2011.The average daily quantity of units
redeemed for the period January 1, 2011 to March 31, 2011 was 1.83 lakhs. The highest quantity

8. New Initiatives and Developments
During the year, several initiatives have been taken by NSCCL to bring about efficiency in clearing
& settlement operations as well as to provide enhanced financial services to its constituents. A few of
them are given as under:
(i) Longer tenure and early recall and repay facility in SLB
In accordance with SEBI circular dated January 6, 2010, the tenure of transactions in SLB has
been increased from one month to 12 months. Further, the borrowers and lenders have been provided
an optionality of doing an early repay and recall of the borrowed and lent securities. This is a
screen based facility and the scheme has seen improved participation subsequent to this.
(ii) Auction on T+2 day basis
Auction in respect of securities pay-in shortages in the Capital market segment was conducted
on a T+3 day basis and settled on the T+4 day of the original trade. Effective from
February 1, 2011, as specified by SEBI, auctions for shortages are conducted on the T+2 day
itself and settled on the T+3 day. This has further shortened the settlement cycle which is beneficial
for the market participants.
(iii) Intra-day client and CP code modification
Members were accorded a half an-hour time window post trading hours for carrying out their
client and CP code modifications ( 4:15 p.m.- 4:45 p.m). An interactive system National Clearing
Management System (NCMS) has now been provided wherein members can carry out such
modifications intra-day upto 4:15 p.m. While providing members more time for these
modifications, it also facilitates faster download of data to members.

National Securities Clearing Corporation Limited Sixteenth Annual Report

(iv) On-line dissemination of India VIX


India VIX values which were earlier disseminated on the website only at the EOD are now
being disseminated on an online real time basis. This makes it amenable for introduction of
products on VIX.
(v) Faster payout to members
Payout of securities was being effected to members by around 12 noon or thereafter. The pay-in
and pay-out processes have been revamped to effect payout within five minutes of pay-in i.e. by
around 11:15 a.m. This facility is very helpful to members as they are able to use these securities
for providing for early pay-in of their outstanding transaction thereby getting margin benefits.
(vi) Process optimisations and automations
Existing manual processes were identified and automated and processes optimised to ensure
reduced turnaround time. This has reduced areas of errors and process time respectively. These
inter-alia include automation of corporate bonds settlement process, process re-sequencing and
optimisation for facilitating faster download of information / reports to members.
9. Other Achievements

Corporation Ltd (NSCCL). ‘AAA' rating indicates highest degree of strength with regard to honoring
debt obligations. NSCCL is the first Indian Clearing Corporation to get this rating. The rating reflects
NSCCL's status as Clearing Corporation for NSE, India's largest stock exchange. The rating also
factors in NSCCL's rigorous risk management controls and adequate settlement guarantee cover.
NSCCL has been accorded this rating for the third consecutive year.
10. Opportunities and increased coverage

insurance cover available if any.

National Securities Clearing Corporation Limited Sixteenth Annual Report

f) Income Tax :
Income tax expense for the year, comprising current tax and deferred tax is included in
determining the net profit for the year.
A provision is made for the current tax based on tax liability computed in accordance with
relevant tax rates and tax laws. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is
reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such
deferred tax assets can be realised. In situations where the company has unabsorbed depreciation
or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty
supported by convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits. At
each balance sheet date the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognises
unrecognised deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually
certain, as the case may be that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which
such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The company
writes-down the carrying amount of a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably
certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which deferred tax asset can be realised. Any such write-down is reversed to
the extent that it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient
future taxable income will be available.
g) Provisions, contingent liabilities & contingent assets :
Provisions involving substantial degree of estimations in measurement are recognized when
there is present obligation as result of past events and it is probable that there will be outflow of
economic resources. Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined based
on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at
each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed while, contingent assets neither are
recognized nor disclosed in financial statements.
h) Earning Per Share:
Basic and diluted earning per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity
shareholders for the year, by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
year.
2. Notes to Accounts :

17. In terms of the authority granted by the General Meeting held on September 25th, 2006, the Company has
formulated an Employee Stock Option Plan 2006 (ESOP). Under the said ESOP, 3,47,350 Options for
equivalent number of Equity Shares of the company have been granted as an incentive scheme to the
employees covered under the scheme. The Scheme provides that the Options shall vest in a graded manner
over a period of 4 years in the ratio of 25%, 30%, 35% and 10% respectively. The exercise period shall be
three years from the vesting of each tranche of the aforesaid options. Each option entitles the holder of the
option to 1 Equity Share of the Company at an exercise price of Rs.53/- per share, which is also the Fair
Market Value (FMV) of the share on the date of the grant as determined by a valuation report obtained from
an independent valuer.
The Guidance Note issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India on Accounting for Employee
Share Based Payments requires accounting of the expense in regard to the ESOPs. The Company has adopted
the Intrinsic Value Method as given in the said Guidance for accounting for the same. The Company has
obtained expert opinion that since the Exercise Price is equal to the FMV of the shares on the grant date; it
would not be required to recognize any compensation expense since the "intrinsic value" of the options is NIL.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES


The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance
with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the
directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted
Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors
must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state
of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial
statements, the directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the
company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the
company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company
and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also
responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention
and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

To,
The Members,
Your Directors have pleasure in presenting the Fifth Annual Report and the Audited Accounts of NSE Infotech
Services Limited (NSETECH) for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2011.

I. OPERATIONS AND MAJOR EVENTS DURING THE YEAR


The focal areas of speed, quality, predictability, productivity and innovation have been institutionalised
across NSETECH. This financial year has been path-breaking in terms of the new architecture of the
trading system which allows for linear scalability thus enabling us to handle the four fold growth of order
transactions
Operations Highlights:
(1) Trading
The Trading system has seen volumes grow in leaps and bounds and the architecture of the system has
been changed to meet with the requirements. Net Market Rollout in the F&O segment is a milestone
towards capacity enhancement of trading system enabling horizontal scalability, to scale up to on
demand capacity by adding multiple market machines. The parallel redevelopment of the matching
engine (retooling project), currently underway, will result in a final capacity of 100,000 messages/sec.
The Appletree Database has been replaced with the newly developed SMFS (Shared Memory File
System) in the post trade (PT) layer of the FO trading system. In parallel, the earlier Stratus proprietary
messaging solution (VMA) has been migrated to a new generation messaging solution (29West) for
communication across various layers of the Trading system. 29West messaging is a high throughput,
low latency solution that is being used to achieve throughput of over 100K messages/sec. These
implementations enable a low latency and high throughput architecture. The NET layer hardware in
CD segments was upgraded from FT model 6210 to FT model 6300, along with the operating system
migration from Red Hat Linux Version 5.2 to Version 5.4.
With the advent of co-location, there was a market need for real-time data to be disseminated to these
High frequency algorithmic trading members, to enable them build the order book and help their
algorithms to work optimally. The Exchange has offered a new category of connectivity (Category T)
for market data broadcast called Tick by Tick. Tick by Tick data provides the latest order (new, modified
and cancelled) and trade information to the market.
With the increase in average number of order messages per day in the F&O segment from around
80 million to 100 million, the F&O trading capacity was increased by adding a third market machine
(until the release of Retooling project). With this, the capacity of FO Trading system has increased
from 12,000 to 18,000 order messages per second. CM trading capacity was also increased by adding
a fourth market machine. With this, the capacity of CM Trading system has increased from 5000 to
~7000 order messages per second.
In keeping with global trends, the Exchange has provided members a co-location facility for low
latency high frequency trading. The co-location phase II data center is an international standard, state
of the art, highly robust, resilient and secure infrastructure data center, built at the BKC premises. This
Phase II data center has a capacity of 54 full racks and 28 half racks.

(2) Clearing and Settlement


The time taken by the Securities Pay-in/Pay-out cycle of the settlement cycle on T+2 day was about
90 minutes. The complete process was re-engineered along with the workflow and appropriate
automation to reduce the end-to-end time from 90 minutes to 3-5 minutes.
Funds Shortage Collateral (FSC) is the collateral blocked from the member's total capital based on
disablements arising out of Funds shortage. The computation of FSC involves analysis and monitoring
of the member's funds shortage over a considerable period of time. This computation was being done
manually by Funds department. This release enables the automated computation of FSC blockages
that can be released back to member.
Securities Lending and Borrowing scheme framework has been modified in accordance with guidelines
from SEBI. The major features introduced are Extension of Tenure for SLB transactions upto12 months,
Facility for request of Early Recall of securities by the lender and Facility for request of Early Repayment
of securities by the borrower. The Clearing and settlement system was completely changed to
accommodate the new business rules and released on state of art Itanium hardware.
The NSCCL Clearing Management System for Currency Derivatives (NCMS-CD) is a centralised
system where the trades and obligations management of all clearing members (CMs) with respect to
their Trading Members (TMs) and custodial participants (CPs) is consolidated. The primary purpose
of the system is to provide the CM to perform trade management by controlling the Trade Approvals
or Rejections of the TMs and CPs under him. Clearing Member can query/create/modify/delete the
intent request for the Trading Member/Custodial Participant and create a TM Enablement request for
all the TMs. The system was released to live on 21st June 2010 after a successful mock session.
The Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) facility in Mutual Fund Service System was introduced from
19th October 2010. Changes were made in the NEAT MFSS system functionalities and the MFSS
BackOffice systems to facilitate collection of SIP orders from MFSS Trading system. The application
also provides advance intimation to the Investor via the Trading member of upcoming SIP tranche,
to enable appropriate fund collection.
The Collateral application interfaces with DMS (Document Management System) to store and index
scanned copies of all physical documents submitted to NSCCL. While transferring instruments across
segments, users need to manually upload the scanned documents into the destination segment, as the
transferred instrument is treated as a new Collateral entry in the new segment. Similarly, manual
uploads are required during change of member code. As this is cumbersome and redundant activity,
changes have been made in the Collateral application to seamlessly transfer the scanned documents in
DMS, without any user intervention.
Custodians (PCM) have been providing trade confirmations for trades that shall be settled by them,
after end of trading on T day till T+1 Day 13:00 hrs. They were margined post this cut off on T+1 day.
With the new process, the confirmation process has been made online and the cutoff time changed to
18:00 hrs on T day.
The depository interface in the clearing and settlement system had to be changed to adapt to new
communication methodology adapted by NSDL. The new interface for segments CM, SLB and MFSS
application to facilitate seamless communication with NSDL for the Securities Pay-in/Pay-out
processing was released to live on 17th December 2010.
Design discussions are underway for the New generation Clearing and settlement. The key objectives
of the new generation clearing and settlement system are manageability, reliability and scalability of
the new architecture.

(3) Risk Management and Surveillance


The process of enabling members across segments when there is an increase in collateral deposits was
manual. Mails were exchanged between the risk team and the collateral team as and when the member
was disabled or when the member brings in more collateral. With the new changes in place, the risk
team gets a pop up message when the disabled member brings in additional collateral. In addition to
this, the process of making the member eligible (only for cases where member is disabled due to
collateral shortage) for enablement in the risk management system has also been automated.
In the existing system, CP code and Client code modifications on T day trade were permitted after the
end of market hours. The above facility is made online and modifications to CP/Client code any time
during the market hours is permitted. The resulting change in marginable positions will be reflected
online in CM Risk management.
The Exchange introduced a Pre-open session with a call auction mechanism to reduce price volatility
at market opening through price discovery. This facility is currently enabled for Nifty stocks only. The
Risk Management system has been enhanced to monitor the provisional positions of members through
pre-order risk management.
The risk management system is a real-time engine which calculates obligations for both sides of every
trade, maintains a client-wise portfolio and calculates margins at client level grossing it up to TM and
then CM Level. The margins at TM and CM are validated for capital adequacy and violations/
suspensions are sent to Trading System in case limits are exceeded. Post several benchmarks with pre-
set parameters (portfolio, trade rate, number of suspensions, intra-day changes) bottlenecks were
identified. The risk engines were optimised to reduce the average turnaround time within the risk
management considerably.
(4) Network & Security
The Internal Firewall, deployed for controlling access from the user segment to the servers hosted at
the 6th Floor Data Center and the Secondary network Firewall, deployed for controlling the third
party access from internet and leased lines to the various servers hosted in the DMZ segment were
upgraded from R65 running on Nortel Platform to R70.30 on Nokia Platform because the capacity of
the uplinks from the Floor Switches to the Core switch were upgraded from 1Gbps to 10 Gbps. The
firewall upgrade will result in performance improvement and simplified and efficient management of
firewall.
Earlier, Regional Offices (RO) LAN was operational on 8+ years old 3Com Switches. The obsolete
3Com based LAN switches across all ROs were upgraded using Cisco Switches for better support &
manageability. In the WAN domain, additional STM-4(Synchronous Transport Module) link was
implemented between DC & DR to cater to SAN and other traffic. In the new setup, traffic is configured
for 3 STM-4 links providing total bandwidth of 1.8 Gbps. In order to strengthen monitoring and
management of Cisco load balancers in IP network, GUI based management tool ANM (Application
Network Monitoring) was successfully implemented
NOW datacenter which was earlier present on ground floor (BKC) has been relocated to data center
on first floor. The new data center is an international standard, state of the art, robust and secure data
center. The entire project was split in five phases. Each phase was executed during the weekends
starting from 4th Sep 2010 till 2nd Oct 2010. During the shifting period, NOW operations were carried
from both the locations. A total of 104 servers, 41 switches/routers were moved in this shifting. The
entire shifting was meticulously planned and well co-ordinated with telecom service providers, hardware
vendors and support staff ensuring that there was no downtime in NOW operations.

Uplinking permission for 48 Mhz from NOCC (Network Operations Control Center) was received
subsequent to surrender of 19.5 MHz unused space segments on INSAT-3A. Additionally, preventive
maintenance of BKC VSAT Antenna was successfully carried out in the month. In the NOW network,
all the three ISP firewall's (Checkpoint make) were upgraded to version R70. As part of Network and
Server rack cabling re-dressing across Datacenter, the old X.25 equipment and cables were removed
from the Data Centre.
SAN is the most critical component for data storage in core production systems (Risk, Clearing,
Index, Surveillance and Data warehousing). In order to meet the growth in terms of data volumes,
SAN setup was upgraded for additional storage capacity of 16TB (Terabyte) each at Mumbai
and Chennai with improved performance. The upgrade at Mumbai was successfully completed on
14th August 2010 and Chennai on 12th August 2010 with end to end application and infrastructure
testing.
Web Application Firewall (WAF) on NSE's website (http://www.nseindia.com) was implemented to
help mitigate HTTP attacks (such as SQL injection, Cross site scripting). It helps in detecting potential
Web application attacks in HTTP traffic before the request is served. If an anomalous and potentially
malicious pattern is detected in HTTP request headers, WAF can either issue an alert or block the
traffic altogether. The Web Application Firewall service provides a highly scalable, outer defensive
ring for the NSE website and enables continuous availability of the website.
(5) Other Systems
Corporate information page of the website has been enhanced for better usability, ease of navigation,
richer user interface and improved search facility. Corporate homepage on the NSE website has been
revamped with improved data architecture and better usability. The corporate information can now be
searched by Company, by Industry, by date and by Subject. Symbol suggest facility is also available
for easy identification of the company name.
MOST Shares M50 is an open ended Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) which is fundamentally a weighted
basket based on S&P CNX Nifty Index. The constituents of MOSt 50 Basket are same as the constituents
of Nifty. Weights assigned to constituents are dependent on their fundamental performance. The system
was made live on 19th July 2010.
Membership Application (earlier client server based) is now re-engineered to a new Web based
application. It has a rich web based front-end user interface with enhanced functionalities and fully
Re-designed normalised database. The design also takes care of scalability, configurability, improved
user management and charting features. With the web based interface, local environment configuration/
setups for end users has been eliminated thereby improving overall operational efficiency.
(6) New Initiatives
Segment revamp - Securities Lending & Borrowing (SLBM): Securities Lending and Borrowing scheme
framework has been modified in accordance with guidelines from SEBI. The major features introduced
are Extension of Tenure for SLB transactions up to 12 months, Facility for request of Early Recall of
securities by the lender and Facility for request of Early Repayment of securities by the borrower.

SCHEDULE 10 : SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NOTES TO ACCOUNTS

1. Significant Accounting Policies


a) Basis of Accounting.
The financial statements have been prepared to comply in all material respects with the Accounting
Standards notified by Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, (as amended) and the relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The financial statements have been prepared under the
historical cost convention on an accrual basis except in case of assets for which provision for
impairment is made and revaluation is carried out. The accounting policies have been consistently
applied by the Company and are consistent with those used in the previous year.
b) Use of Estimates :
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
results of operations during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based upon
management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these
estimates.
c) Revenue Recognition.
(i) Revenue from IT & Process support charges are recognised on accrual basis when services
are rendered and there is reasonable certainty of ultimate realization.
(ii ) Dividends on Investments are recognized when a right to receive the same is established
(iii) Interest is recognized on time proportionate basis taking into consideration the amount
outstanding and the rate applicable.
d) Fixed Assets
(i) Fixed assets are stated at cost (or revalued amounts, as the case may be), less accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any
attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.
(ii) Depreciation is provided on the "Straight line method" based on estimated useful life of
assets at the following rates which are higher than those prescribed in Schedule XIV (Inserted
by the Companies (Amendment) Act, 1988 and Notification GSR No. 756E dated 16th
December, 1993) to the Companies Act, 1956. Depreciation on additions/deletions is provided
on pro-rata basis from the date of acquisition/ up to the date of deletion :
Assets Depreciation Rate
Office Equipment 25.00%
Clearing and Settlement Systems 25.00 %
Telecommunications Systems 25.00 %
e) Impairment of Assets
The carrying amount of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is an indication of

cost of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount on the reporting date, an impairment loss if any is
charged to Profit & Loss Account in the year in which the asset is identified as impaired .

NATIONAL COMMODITY CLEARING LIMITED
Fifth Annual Report

f) Investments
(i) Long term investments are considered as held till maturity and are valued at cost. Provision is
made for diminution in the value of investment, if any, other than temporary in nature.
(ii) Premium/ Discount at the time of acquisition of Government / Debt securities is amortised /
recognised over the residual period of its maturity.
(iii) Current investments are valued at cost or fair value whichever is lower.
g) Income Tax
Income tax expense for the year, comprising current tax and deferred tax is included in determining
the net profit for the year.
A provision is made for the current tax based on tax liability computed in accordance with relevant
tax rates and tax laws. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable
certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax
assets can be realised. In situations where the company has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward
tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by
convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits. At each balance sheet
date the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred
tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be
that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be
realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The company
writes-down the carrying amount of a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably
certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available
against which deferred tax asset can be realised. Any such write-down is reversed to the extent that
it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable
income will be available.
h) Provisions , contingent liabilities & contingent assets
Provisions involving substantial degree of estimations in measurement are recognised when there is
present obligation as result of past events and it is probable that there will be outflow of resources.
Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required
to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed while, contingent assets neither are
recognised nor disclosed in financial statements .
i) Earning Per Share
Basic and diluted earning per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity
shareholders for the year by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
j) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement comprise cash at bank and in
hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
