Leading stock exchange NSE on Thursday witnessed the 100th migration from the SME (small and medium enterprise) platform to the main-board.
The exchange's SME Platform -- EMERGE -- was launched in 2012 and has been providing a viable and sustainable option for SMEs to raise funds from the capital markets.
The platform has witnessed 235 companies getting listed, aggregating to total issuances of more than Rs 3,611 crore, the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd (NSE) said in a statement.
