Shareholders of the BSE have given their approval for the merger between United Stock Exchange of India (USE) and the BSE. The approval by shareholders was given at a Court Convened Meeting of teh equity shareholders of the BSE held on Monday, October 20.

A news release from the BSE said that the BSE and USE will now be filing necessary petitions before the Bombay High Court seeking its sanction for the merger.
