NSE Set for Debut After Rs 22,569-Crore IPO
The National Stock Exchange of India is about to start trading its own shares.
Its IPO was a way for investors to buy those shares before the listing.
Investors wanted more shares than were available, so the issue was subscribed 5.71 times.
Large institutional investors showed the most interest.
The IPO price was between Rs 1,700 and Rs 1,785 per share.
NSE itself will not receive the money because existing shareholders are selling their shares.
The listing will take place on the BSE and Metropolitan Stock Exchange of India.
Higher oil prices and uncertain global markets could affect how the shares perform on the first day.
National Stock Exchange of India shares are scheduled to begin trading at 10 am on Thursday.
The Rs 22,569-crore IPO was subscribed 5.71 times during bidding from September 17 to 21.
Qualified institutional buyers placed the strongest demand, subscribing to 12.68 times their allotted portion.
The offer-for-sale IPO was priced between Rs 1,700 and Rs 1,785 per share, with proceeds going to existing shareholders.
Higher crude prices and weak global cues could influence the exchange’s first trading session.
