Listed companies are public companies whose shares are listed on a recognized stock exchange for public trading. When a company’s security is listed on a recognized stock exchange the price fluctuation can easily be observed by the investor and he/she can easily determine the increase/decrease in the value of their investment in a concerned listed company.
What is Meant by Listed?
‘Listed’ means to be included and traded on a given stock or commodity exchange. Many exchanges have precise criteria that companies must meet to stay listed.
In India, companies must go for an initial public offer (IPO) to be listed on a stock exchange, such as the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The second best-known stock exchange in India is the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
What are the Benefits of Getting Listed?
A Prime Marketplace- The sheer volume of trading activity ensures the exchange’s impact cost is lower, which, in turn, reduces the investor’s trading cost. The automated trading system of NSE provides accuracy and clarity in trade matching, which enhances the trust and visibility of our market to investors.
Visibility- The trading network offers an unprecedented amount of knowledge about trade and post-trade. On the trading page, the best five buy and sell orders are shown, and the total number of shares available for purchase and sale is also shown. This allows the investor to know the market size. Additionally, company reports, performance, corporate activities, etc. are available on the trading system.
Unprecedented success- NSE provides a trading platform, extending across the country’s length and breadth. Investors from 191 centres can use the NSE Trading Network’s trading facilities. The exchange makes use of the latest communications technology to provide instant access from any location.
