NSE Cuts IPO Offer as Long-Awaited Listing Nears
The National Stock Exchange of India plans to sell some existing shares to the public.
This sale is called an IPO.
People are expected to place orders from September 17 to September 21.
Large investors may bid one day earlier, on September 16.
Existing shareholders will sell fewer shares than they originally planned.
The expected price is about ₹1,700 to ₹1,800 per share.
The shares may begin trading around September 24.
The money raised will go to the selling shareholders, while the exchange will not receive it.
The National Stock Exchange of India will open its IPO for subscription on September 17 and close it on September 21.
Anchor-investor bidding is scheduled for September 16, with listing tentatively planned around September 24.
Existing shareholders will offer up to 126.4 million shares, down from 148.91 million planned earlier.
The indicative price range is approximately ₹1,700–₹1,785, though another report places the expected upper end at ₹1,800 and says formal confirmation is pending.
The entirely secondary share sale is estimated to raise ₹21,494–₹22,567 crore for selling shareholders, not the exchange.
