CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: The much-awaited initial public offering (IPO) of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) has become a major point of discussion among investors. The IPO price band has been fixed at ₹1,700 to ₹1,785 per share, and the issue is scheduled to remain open from September 17 to September 21, 2026. NSE’s total issue size is around ₹22,568 crore.

Investor interest is also visible in the grey market around the IPO. According to recent reports, the grey market premium (GMP) of NSE shares is being quoted at around ₹220. This means that against the upper price band of ₹1,785, the potential listing price is being seen at around ₹2,005. However, GMP is an informal market indicator and does not guarantee the actual listing price.

Brokerages and market analysts continue to show confidence in NSE’s strong market position, its dominance in derivatives trading and its improved profitability. At the same time, for some investors, the exchange’s higher dependence on options trading and possible regulatory changes remain areas of risk. NSE’s IPO is entirely an Offer for Sale (OFS), meaning the company will not receive any fresh capital from the issue.

According to market experts, investors should not make decisions only on the basis of GMP. Before investing in the IPO, it is important to assess the valuation, financial performance and risks.
