The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE), on August 21, 2026, informed members that a mock trading session for the Electronic Gold Receipts (EGR) segment will be conducted from the Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery (BCP/DR) site on August 22, 2026. The mock session will be followed by a re-login session from the Primary site to facilitate seamless login and operations on August 24, 2026.
The mock trading session will commence with the pre-open session at 8:45 AM, followed by normal market operations from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, including block deal and auction sessions. Members must retain their existing NEAT Adapter settings, as no changes are required for connecting to the Primary/DR sites. During the mock, operations will shift from the Primary site to the DR site through a non-graceful shutdown, requiring members to take necessary system-level actions. Outstanding orders will also be purged before trading begins from the BCP site.
The live re-login session from the Primary site will be conducted from 6:30 PM to 7:00 PM on August 22, 2026. Members are required to ensure their systems are brought into a consistent state following the DR switchover and clear outstanding Session-1 orders if using NNF software. Detailed operational, login, market-data, NEATPlus EG installation and DR switchover instructions are provided through the five annexures to the circular.
