A Correct answer
Explanation

Established in 1875, the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is indeed Asia's oldest stock exchange, having operated continuously for nearly 150 years. While it is not the largest by market capitalization today (exchanges in Shanghai, Tokyo, and Hong Kong are larger), it holds the distinction of being the first stock exchange established in Asia. The BSE is also home to the SENSEX index, one of India's primary stock market benchmarks.
