They both are stock exchange in India but there are few differences. BSE and NSE are two exchanges. Suppose you want to buy groceries. You have two options. 1. Big Bazar 2. Spancer. Prices are same but one may like one. It is sane for BSE and NSE. Now you want to buy ‘basmati rice’ and u don’t find it in Big Bazar then you can go to Spancer and buy it.
Some basic differences are listed below:
