MUMBAI: HDFC vice chairman and CEO Keki Mistry rang the opening bell on the BSE day, this morning. He was present at the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) on the invitation of ET Now to celebrate the BSE day.

On how it felt to ring the bell at the BSE, KeKi Mistry said in a jest, “Very Very nice. I was at the board of BSE for many years but never had the opportunity to ring the bell. So this is a great experience.”

However, while talking about the market with ET Now’s Nikunj Dalmia, Chief Editor, Financial Markets, he added, “The mood is a little nervous about emerging markets presently, which got reflected in the last week’s results. But, I think that India stands out and investors also realize the same. Our fundamentals are so much better, the foreign exchange position is good and the reduction in oil and commodity prices is great news. “

The event and the interview was LIVE telecast by ET Now today. Besides, the viewers could catch all the updates and special coverage from the BSE headquarters all through the day.
