NSE and BSE categorize stocks into groups to protect the interest of investors, prevent stock market scams and to ensure transparency and authentic trading. NSE calls the stock categories as Series and BSE call it Groups (A, B, T, and Z).

This categorization is done on certain qualitative and quantitative parameters like P/E overvaluation, high price variation and substantial fall in the market cap. The high-level definition of each of these BSE groups is as below:

  2. BSE Z groups stocks: Stocks that are blacklisted for violation of exchange rules.
  3. BSE T group stocks: Stocks that are in the Trade to Trade segment.
  4. BSE B group stocks: Stocks that don't fall into any other groups.

  1. BE Series: Stocks that are in Trade for Trade segment. BE is for Book Entry.
  2. BZ Series: Stocks that are blacklisted for violation of exchange rules.
  3. EQ Series: Stocks for which intraday is permitted along with delivery. EQ is for Equity.
