NSE Falls to 12th as Experts Debate Share Price Outlook
NSE shares started trading at ₹1,800 last Thursday.
They briefly climbed to ₹1,878 before falling for several trading sessions.
Because of the decline, NSE moved from 10th to 12th place among India’s most valuable listed companies.
Experts say the broader Indian stock market is currently weak, which may be adding pressure.
They identify ₹1,760 as an important support level.
If the price falls below that level, it could move toward ₹1,700.
If it rises above ₹1,795, it could move toward ₹1,880.
One analyst thinks long-term investors can buy gradually, while new investors should use stop-losses.
NSE shares debuted on the BSE at ₹1,800, a ₹15 premium to the allotment price.
After reaching ₹1,878, the stock faced four consecutive sessions of profit-taking and selling pressure.
NSE fell from India’s 10th-most valuable listed company to 12th, behind Sun Pharmaceutical Industries and ahead of neither named company.
Experts identified ₹1,760 as immediate support and ₹1,795 as resistance, with possible moves toward ₹1,700 or ₹1,880.
Analysts described NSE as a long-term portfolio stock but recommended staggered buying and strict stop-losses.

Quotes
Seema Srivastava
Senior Research Analyst at SMC Global Securities
“One can start accumulating NSE shares in a staggered manner. If someone is planning to add NSE shares to their stock portfolio, they should first allocate 40% of their surplus to NSE shares and wait to see the future course of action. They can buy some more shares, say, allocate 30% of the surplus amount to NSE shares at or above ₹1750, whichever comes first. Rest 30% can be allocated on the next breakout or breakdown in the NSE shares.”

“NSE is a proxy play to the Indian economy and the capital markets. As the outlook for both variables is positive, there is no harm in holding the NSE shares for the long term. One must keep in mind that NSE is not a trading stock; it's a portfolio stock.”
