Stock market is a term used to refer to any place where stocks are bought and sold. The physical place where the actual trade in stocks happens is called a stock exchange. In India, there are two main stock exchanges - Bombay Stock Exchange or the BSE and National Stock Exchange or the NSE. Traditionally, you or your broker had to be present on the floor of the exchange to buy or sell stocks. These days, however, people make use of online stock trading platforms for this purpose. Many companies offer online stock trading platforms where investors can buy and sell stocks.

A stock exchange, (formerly a securities exchange) is a corporation or mutual organization which provides "trading" facilities for stock brokers and traders, to trade stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges also provide facilities for the issue and redemption of securities as well as other financial instruments and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. The securities traded on a stock exchange include: shares issued by companies, unit trusts, derivatives, pooled investment products and bonds. To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it has to be listed there. Usually there is a central location at least for recordkeeping, but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, as modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantages of speed and cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is by members only. The initial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary market and subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is often the most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock markets is driven by various factors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks (see stock valuation). There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must stock be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange or over-the-counter. This is the usual way that derivatives and bonds are traded. Increasingly, stock exchanges are part of a global market for securities. Ex: National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) - India.
