Let us take this challenge as an opportunity, National Stock Exchange (NSE) Chairman Ashok Chawla said in a letter addressing the exchange's employees after the July 10 technical glitch that held up trade for hours.

As reported earlier, a technical glitch at the NSE, the country’s biggest stock exchange, held up trade for three hours on Monday in the cash and derivatives segments.
