On the occasion, Vijay Kedia, said “from my first failed attempt in 1989 to become a sub-broker at BSE to today where my voice becomes a part of this great institution, the journey is both overwhelming and an honour.”
On the occasion, Ashish Kumar Chauhan, MD & CEO of BSE, said “We thank Shri Kedia for offering us this beautiful jingle. He has been a long term investor in the Capital Markets, and a well-wisher and supporter of the exchange. We are grateful for his kind gesture.”
Speaking on the occasion, Uttam Bagri, former Chairman of Bombay Stock Exchange Brokers Forum, said “This is a wonderful association between BSE and Kedia, and shows the goodwill that exists between the exchange and the investors of the Capital Markets. Truly a song by the market of the market for the market.”
