Introduction Over the counter exchange of India was started in 1992 after the role models of NASDAQ(national association of securities dealers automated quotation) and JASDAQ. The OTCEI was started with the objective of providing a market for the smaller companies that could not afford the listing fees of the large exchanges and did not fulfill minimum requirements for listing. It aimed at creating a fully decentralised and transparent market.

Market making concept In the market making, market makers offer tow way quotes continuously i.e. buy quote and sell quote. The main objective behind the market making concept is to make the merchant bankers accountable even after an issue is over. This promotes liquidity to the small investor. There are three types of market making: Compulsory market making Additional market making Voluntary market making
17
Compulsory market making:
This responsibility is undertaken by the sponsor of the issue for a period of three years from the date of public trading. Even if the market making responsibility is assigned to some other member by sponsor, the sponsor is responsible for satisfactory discharge of compulsory market making. At the end of three years period, the sponsor can withdraw from the market making function only if he could provide another compulsory market for the scrip.
18
The market maker can apply for termination of duty only if the scrip sponsored has incurred cash loss for three years or if the company is insolvent or the company’s prospects are bleak. The OTCEI exchange may terminate if it thinks fit. Even after the termination, if the company regains once again, the trading would be permitted by OTCEI. The compulsory and additional market makers should possess 5 % of the public offer.
19
Additional market making
The additional market maker is appointed by the sponsor for a period not less than one year from the date of public offering. The additional market maker can be more than one.
20
Voluntary market making
This is offered voluntarily by the member and once offered, he should continue at least three months from the date of commencement. He can offer buy and sell quotes. He has to refrain from giving sell quotes if he does not possess the quantity specified by OTCEI.
