The National Stock Exchange of India is preparing to sell shares to the public.
Some existing shareholders planned to sell shares as part of the IPO.

State Bank of India made one of the largest reductions.
Other shareholders also cut their proposed sales.
The article says they may be waiting to receive a better price after the shares begin trading.
The IPO could open around September 18 and may list on BSE around September 25.
Selling shareholders have reduced the NSE IPO offer to 126.4 million shares from 148.9 million.
The offer-for-sale is now expected to raise Rs 22,500 crore to Rs 23,000 crore, down from Rs 30,000 crore.
State Bank of India cut its proposed sale to 15.97 million shares, while SBI Capital Markets will sell 8.78 million.
