Kathmandu, September 22, 2026 — Regular share trading at the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) will resume on Tuesday after the technical issue at the data center serving 72 trading members was resolved.
NEPSE Information Officer Murahari Parajuli said trading would resume as usual from September 22 after NEPSE received information that the technical problem at Data Hub Pvt. Ltd., the data center serving its trading members, had been resolved.
NEPSE had suspended regular trading on September 21 after the technical problem occurred at the data center. Trading was halted because continuing operations before the issue was resolved could have risked damage to NEPSE’s trading system.
The Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) had also directed NEPSE to study and investigate the issue that led to the trading suspension. The board asked NEPSE to submit a report outlining necessary corrective measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
SEBON has also dispatched a five-member inspection team led by its deputy executive director to examine the technical aspects of the incident.
Although trading is resuming following the resolution of the data center problem, the technical cause of the incident and the associated systemic risks have yet to be identified.
NEPSE gained 21.32 points to close at 2,621.26 on Wednesday, with turnover reaching Rs 4.13 billion and banking, development banks and non-life insurance leading sectoral gains.
