Abstract
This paper attempts to understand the phenomenon of market crashes in BSE India. This involves the identification of its causes, mechanism, properties that the market exhibits as well as the identification of the market indicators and its success in the predetermination of market crashes. An analysis on the time series data of the Bombay Stock Exchange is also tested for log-periodic trends to assess market stability.
