What NSE Data & Analytics does

NSE Data & Analytics Limited (formerly DotEx International Limited) is a step-down 100% subsidiary of the National Stock Exchange of India, owned via NSE Strategic Investment Corporation Limited. Incorporated in 2000 and headquartered at Exchange Plaza, Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai, the company operates the data and info-vending business of the NSE Group. Its core platform distributes NSE-generated market data to financial market professionals, intermediaries and data vendors/redistributors in India, with a stated headcount band of 501-1000 employees. The entity is private and unlisted; the parent NSE is preparing its own IPO, but NSE Data & Analytics itself has no separate listing.

The company's product portfolio comprises three core offerings. Data and Info Vending is the largest, providing online streaming data feeds at Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and tick-by-tick granularity, plus snapshot data feeds, end-of-day data, historical data for back-testing and research, and corporate data for listed companies. NSE Fixed Income Valuations extends the franchise into fixed income pricing and analytics. KYC Registration Agency (KRA) services embed the subsidiary into mandatory compliance workflows for Indian market participants. Distribution is direct to enterprises (financial institutions, brokers, data vendors) within India; no API or SDK access is publicly documented and pricing is not disclosed. The Cogencis Information Services acquisition (January 2021) is the principal inorganic content addition on record.

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring subscription fees on data products; standalone revenue for the subsidiary is not separately disclosed in the supplied sources, with the only revenue reference being NSE's consolidated figure of Rs 18,700 crore for FY26. The business is structurally tied to NSE's primary trading platform, giving it privileged access to exchange-generated data, and to the broader NSE Group ecosystem (NAL Academy, NSE Clearing, NSE Indices, NSE International Exchange, NSE Foundation, NSE Investments), which provides cross-sell and internal demand for its data and analytics services. Geographic footprint is domestic-only (India), and no AI/ML capabilities, patents, certifications or named customer logos are disclosed in the source material.
