Stock Exchanges are service point between traders & companies. One cannot directly invest through a stock exchange. They have to go through an Exchange specified broker (registered)
Exchange lists shares of Companies on their exchanges for trading. They offer a platform (terminal) for trading shares to their registered members (brokers). Various mechanisms are put in place to ensure risk free environment given the nature of securities trading.
Normally trading in India is on T+2 basis i.e. if Trading is on Monday settlement is on Wednesday.
Due to efficient market cycles earlier where trading used to take place for a week and settlement used to take place over 3-4 days. The entire trading and settlement cycle has been shortened to just 3 days.
When trading for securities is completed are are to be settled on a date decided by the Exchange. Each settlement is numbered. On the settlement day each market participant involved in the trade has to settle his position either by bringing in securities which he sold or by paying cash for securities he bought. He may have an option to square off his transaction (intra-day trading) but before the close of the trading period.
The settlement is effected by the Exchange by receiving funds from parties that have bought shares and by giving them these shares and by receiving from sellers shares that they sold and by giving them the amount that is owed by the purchasing party.
That is why terms like sauda is very common in trading because that is exactly what it is. The Exchange is like a self regulating authority. It is a medium of Exchange and for settling disputes arising out of transactions in the process.
The whole setup of an Exchange and its activities are very very complex. This is just a basis information I have provided.

Dear, Stock Exchange is a market place where many companies can do their transactions with their net values like what is growth or loss for their firm. They do exchange their values to other companies. BSE is the main stock market in india which you can also compares with NYSE New York Stock Exchange.

The stock market is sort of like EBAY except they are trading shares in company stocks ( partial ownership in the companies ) instead of the clutter they sell on EBAY.
Check out Yahoo finance for introduction on the basics of stocks, bonds, mutual funds etc.

I would give you the links from our research files that the government has provided to the public answering your question but yahoo answers says that providing links with the proper answers to questions is spamming and using the source of where those links come from is advertising and they rather just have written answers from sources that are not qualified to provide such answers
