India kicked off its first exchange-traded rupee futures on Friday with heavy trading reported in the first minutes of business and front-month contracts seeing the highest activity. Dealers said banks and large companies made the bulk of trading, even though the contract size is small compared with exchange-traded currency futures elsewhere.
By 10:14 a.m. (0444 GMT), more than 8,000 contracts were traded on the National Stock Exchange (NSE), the first of several platforms planned, with the heaviest trade on the September and October contracts, NSE data showed. On the spot market, the rupee was trading at 43.74/75 per dollar, slightly firmer than Thursday close at 43.78/79.
India is trying to develop more sophisticated financial markets and hedging tools to support its rapidly growing economy and Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram said at the start of trading the government needed to push on with more instruments.
\"After having launched currency futures, we need to revitalise exchange-traded interest rate derivatives markets, offer exchange-traded credit derivatives and also need to strengthen the corporate bond markets,\" he said. \"These three products are high on the priority list of the government and I ask the government to move forward on this.\"
Each contract size is $1,000, smaller than 12.5 million Japanese yen ($115,000) or 100,000 Australian dollars (US$86,000) contract sizes on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The Multi Commodity Exchange of India and the Bombay Stock Exchange have also received in-principle approval to offer exchange-trade currency futures.-ET...

The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has offered Deutsche Borse and Singapore Stock Exchange positions of director on the BSE board, said a senior BSE official.
“We have offered them positions as board members,” said the BSE Chairman, Mr Jagdish Capoor, while speaking to media persons on the sidelines of a book launch function at the exchange.
With regards to delay in new derivative products to be offered in tie-ups with foreign exchanges, BSE’s technical committee is working on it, as regulator SEBI wanted technology being made available by foreign parties to suit domestic market conditions.
“BSE’s technical committee met today (on Friday) to sort out the issues related to technological support to be provided by its foreign partners, Deutsche Borse and Singapore Stock Exchange. Indian stock market regulator Sebi wanted some changes to suit the domestic requirements,” Mr Capoor said. BSE technical committee may have to meet again before the matter is finalised. With regards to the Sebi approval for BSE to launch currency futures trading, Mr Capoor said that there were a few things to complete, “otherwise BSE’s preparedness was almost complete and we are waiting for Sebi to do an assessment.”
Meanwhile, BSE’s plans to launch a commodity exchange seem to have been postponed with the exchange calling off its tie-up with NMCE. “We might look at launching commodity exchange in future. But for the time being, the relations with NMCE are over,” said Mr Capoor.
Dalal Street Investment Journal launched a book on Indian Stock Market in English and Hindi titled Stock Market Book to educate common investors about the various dynamics of the equity market

Brokers told to carry out internal audits half-yearly
The market regulator, Securities and Exchange Board of India, has asked the stock exchanges to direct their brokers and clearing members to carry out complete internal audits on a half-yearly basis by independent qualified Chartered Accountants.
The first such audit period would be the half-year ending March 31, 2009, SEBI said in a circular on Friday. Earlier exchanges used to appoint auditors who would check brokers’ books on a random basis, said a broker.
New regulations
According to a broker, some brokers misrepresent accounts for their own benefit, but with the internal audit made mandatory, all those who fake their profits or losses will find it difficult to do so. There are many leakages and loopholes in the way the brokers function, with the new regulations there will be more transparency in the system, said another broker.
The market regulator will be able to keep a check on whether the brokers are adhering to the KYC norms, following the mandatory margin requirements and other such activities.
There will be more transparency and accountability wherein proprietary trades of brokers are concerned, said marketmen. Importantly, internal auditors would also be more strict about checking margin funding by brokers and sub brokers. Often sub-brokers extend margins that are way above their clients’ credit worthiness warrants.
Necessary amendments
In choppy market conditions, the market regulator might want to minimise unwarranted risks due to the way some brokers trade and this new regulation will help SEBI curb that menace, said the director of a broking firm based in Mumbai. The market regulator needs to keep a check on questionable activities of marketmen, in such choppy markets, said a broker.
In addition to asking the stock exchanges to bring the new regulation of internal audit to the notice of the member brokers/clearing members and disseminating the same on the Web site, the markets regulator has also asked the stock exchanges to make the necessary amendments to the relevant bye-laws, rules and regulations for the implementation of the above decision immediately. The exchanges should also communicate to SEBI the status of implementation of the new regulation through their monthly development reports.
The audit will cover the scope and efficiency of the internal control system, compliance with the provisions of the SEBI Act, 1992, Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act 1956, SEBI (Stock Brokers and Sub-Brokers) Regulations 1992, circulars issued by SEBI, agreements, KYC requirements, bye-laws of the exchanges, data security and insurance in respect of the operations of stock brokers/clearing members. -BL
