Taking to their official Twitter handle, NSE also shared posts updating people about the situation. “We are working on restoring the systems as soon as possible. In view of the above, all the segments have been closed at 11:40 and will be restored as soon as issue is resolved,” they wrote in one of their updates.

The news soon reached Twitter and people started reacting by sharing various kinds of posts using different hashtags – so much so that the hashtags #nseindia and #Nifty also started trending on the micro-blogging site. And expectedly, some memes makers came up with rib-tickling tweets to showcase their reactions.
