This Computer-to-Computer Link (CTCL) facility is available only to trading members of NSE.

 

About the CTCL Facility:

Members can use their own software running on any suitable hardware/software platform of their choice.  This software will be a replacement of the NEAT front-end software that is currently used by members to trade on the NSE trading system. Members would be able to customise the software to meet their specialised needs, like provision of on-line trade analysis, risk management tools, integration of back-office operations etc.  The dealers of the member may trade using the software, remotely through the member’s own private network, subject to approvals from Department of Telecommunication etc. as may be required in this regard.

 

NSE will however provide only a single user id per VSAT for the purpose of CTCL. Additionally, members shall not be permitted to use the Corporate Manager and Branch Manger user ids for the purpose of CTCL.

 

Trading members shall be responsible to create the entire CTCL set-up at their offices and registered dealers/branch premises. This would include procurement of application software, hardware, setting up a network etc. The Exchange shall provide the required technical details of the connectivity of the CTCL server to the NSE trading system and other technical support.

The Exchange shall help members to establish the computer to computer link, however the members are fully responsible to implement the solution at their end.  It may be noted that members are solely responsible for all the contracts they enter into with any CTCL vendor.  The Exchange shall not be liable for any loss, damage or other costs arising in any way out of the failure of the system.
