New Delhi: The country’s two prime bourses, the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange, are likely to extend the trading time by two and half hours from next month and a formal notification to this effect is expected shortly. “Both the exchanges have discussed the issue and a formal notification is expected shortly,” a senior exchange official said. Last month, market regulator Securities & Exchange Board of India (Sebi) approved extension of the trading timings by up to two-and-a-half hours from 9 am to 5 pm. The current market hours stand from 9.55 am to 3.30 pm.
