NSE hit by technical glitch, trading hit briefly

Exchange looks into reasons

A technical glitch hit trading terminals of the country’s largest exchange NSE on Monday, leaving investors with no real-time updates, markets sources said.

People close to the development said that there was a technical glitch at NSE for about 10 minutes around 3.15 p.m. The problem got resolved minutes before the closing session.

The exchange is looking into the reason for the glitch, they added.

Earlier in the day, many brokers could not get feeds or price updates due to a connectivity issue with one of the Internet services providers, Sify. Later, the issue got resolved.

“There was a connectivity issue with Sify during the morning trade session due to which some brokers could not get feeds. The issue has been resolved by the Internet service provider, ” an NSE spokesperson said.

ICICI Direct had said in a tweet in the morning, “Price feeds not coming from NSE due to technical issue at NSE end. Limit orders not going across all products. Please place limit price.”
