Shares of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), one of Asiaโs oldest stock exchanges, witnessed a 7% drop in intraday trading on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, sliding to โน4,419 per share.

Despite this, Jefferies raised its target price for BSE to โน3,500, indicating a potential downside of 21% from its current trading price. Earlier in April 2024, Jefferies had also downgraded BSE from โbuyโ to โhold,โ slightly lowering its price target from โน3,000 to โน2,900 click here to know more financialnews24.com
