The National Stock Exchange (NSE), India's largest stock exchange, is set to raise ₹22,568.9 crore through an initial public offering (IPO), ending a decade-long wait for its public debut. This IPO will be structured entirely as an Offer for Sale (OFS), where existing shareholders sell their shares. NSE will not issue new shares or raise fresh capital through this offering.
The OFS allows current shareholders to partially divest and monetize their holdings while increasing public participation in NSE's shares. The IPO price band has been set between ₹1,700 and ₹1,785 per share. The issue will open for anchor investors on September 16, 2026, with public subscription running from September 17 to September 24, 2026.
With an issue size of ₹22,568.9 crore, this IPO represents a significant capital market event, providing existing investors an opportunity to sell part of their stake and introducing NSE shares to public investors.
