For example, trader ‘A’ has placed a buy order of 10 shares at Rs. 100, and trader ‘B’ has placed a sell order of 10 shares at Rs. 100. In this case, the stock exchange will match these orders on price-time priority. The trade is settled with the help of a clearing corporation. 

The main objective of the NSE was to establish trading facilities for various types of securities, ensuring fair chances for every investor, and providing a transparent securities market using an electronic trading system.
