NSE Advances Corporate Bond Futures Market

The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) has received a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to introduce futures contracts based on a Corporate Bond Index.

The proposed product will provide market participants with an exchange-traded tool to manage corporate bond market risks while supporting the development of India's corporate bond derivatives ecosystem.

Corporate Bond Index Futures are expected to offer additional avenues for risk management, portfolio hedging and price discovery. The product could also support market-making activities by helping participants manage risks associated with their corporate bond portfolios.

The launch remains subject to the requisite approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

The initiative is part of NSE's broader efforts to deepen India's fixed-income markets and expand the range of exchange-traded risk-management products available to market participants.

NSE Chief Business Development Officer Sriram Krishnan said the SEBI NOC marks an important milestone for India's fixed-income markets. He noted that a well-developed derivatives ecosystem can support more efficient risk transfer, encourage institutional participation and contribute to deeper, more liquid and resilient debt markets.
