What is the difference between BSE and NIFTY?

I want to know why some shares are listed in BSE and some in NIFTY etc. Who controls these two bodies and how they make profit ?and to whom this profit goes ? is there any risk factors while investing in BSE and NIFTY listed shares.

 

I think you have asked to many things in one particular question but i can only help you out with my limited knowledge about this topic.As far as i know Nifty is the index of National Stock Exchange (NSE) and both NSE and Bombay Stock Exchange ( BSE) are the most popular stock exchanges in India.

Stocks can be listed on both these exchanges. Stocks of well known companies are usually listed in both these exchanges.

Since you have asked about the risk factor involved i would suggest you to take the help of internet in that case and visit some website which provides information on how to make and plan your investment in stock and shares.

Be very careful and patient while taking a decision on investing in stocks and shares because at the end of the day it is your hard earned money and so just don't follow anyone's advice blindly..

 

the difference between NSE and BSE are following

NSE Stands for National Stock Exchange. It has more than 2000 stocks from different sectors listed with it. It is fully automated electronic order processing exchange. Nifty is major index of NSE and it comprise of 50 scripts from different sectors.

BSE Stand for Bombay Stock Exchange. It is India's Oldest Stock Exchange with listing of over 4000 scripts with it. This not fully automated yet but progress towards full automation is underway. SENSEX is major index of BSE and it comprise of 30 scripts from different sectors.
