Synopsis
NSE IPO latest updates covering price, GMP, expected listing, issue details, financials, valuation, OFS, allotment and key details investors are watching.

The NSE IPO is expected to be one of the most closely watched IPOs in the Indian market. The issue is proposed as a 100% Offer for Sale (OFS) of 14.89 crore shares, meaning National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. will not receive any funds from the IPO.
As of September 6, 2026, the NSE IPO dates and price band are yet to be announced. The latest grey-market data shows an indicative NSE IPO GMP of ₹286, although the GMP data currently does not have an official issue price to calculate a meaningful listing premium.
The NSE IPO is a book-building issue involving 14,89,05,525 shares. Since the entire issue is an OFS, the proceeds will go to the selling shareholders rather than the company.
Kotak Mahindra Capital Company is listed as the book-running lead manager, while MUFG Intime India is the registrar.

National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSE) is India's largest stock exchange and operates across equities, derivatives, currency derivatives, commodities, debt securities and mutual funds.
Its business includes trading, clearing, settlement, listing, market data, index services, technology and risk-management infrastructure. As of March 31, 2026, NSE had more than 253 million registered investor accounts, 129 million unique investors and 2,978 listed companies.
NSE reported ₹18,713.37 crore of total income and ₹10,302.06 crore of PAT in FY26. However, according to the supplied financial data, revenue declined from ₹19,176.83 crore in FY25, while PAT fell from ₹12,187.69 crore.

Amount in ₹ crore.
The latest supplied data shows NSE IPO GMP at ₹286 on September 6, 2026. However, the issue price is currently shown as ₹0/not declared, so the estimated listing price and percentage premium shown by the GMP tracker are not meaningful until NSE announces its official price band.
| Date | IPO Price | GMP | Estimated Listing Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 06 Sep 2026 | ₹0* | ₹286 | ₹286* |
| 05 Sep 2026 | ₹0* | ₹310 | ₹310* |
| 04 Sep 2026 | ₹0* | ₹285 | ₹285* |
Issue price has not been announced. GMP is unofficial and should not be treated as a guaranteed listing price.
The NSE IPO is entirely an OFS, so the company will not receive funds from the public issue. The IPO proceeds will go to the existing selling shareholders.
This is an important point for investors because, unlike a fresh issue, the IPO will not directly add capital to NSE's balance sheet.
The final valuation of National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. cannot be calculated until the company announces its IPO price band.
The supplied data shows FY26 EPS of ₹41.62. Investors will be able to calculate the IPO P/E once the final issue price is announced.
| Valuation Metric | Pre IPO | Post IPO |
|---|---|---|
| EPS (₹) | 41.62 | 41.62 |
NSE reported strong profitability and return ratios in FY26. Its EBITDA margin was 66.85%, while PAT margin stood at 50.98%.
| KPI | Mar 31, 2026 |
|---|---|
| ROE | 32.98% |
| ROCE | 42.80% |
| RoNW | 33.21% |
| PAT Margin | 50.98% |
| EBITDA Margin | 66.85% |
| NAV | ₹129.75 |
The IPO involves several existing shareholders selling part of their holdings. Major disclosed selling shareholders include State Bank of India, MS Strategic (Mauritius), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Aranda Investments (Mauritius) and Bank of Baroda.
| Selling Shareholder | Category | Shares Offered |
|---|---|---|
| State Bank of India | Corporate | 1,59,69,410 |
| MS Strategic (Mauritius) Ltd. | Corporate | 1,60,00,000 |
| Canada Pension Plan Investment Board | Corporate | 1,18,74,060 |
| Aranda Investments (Mauritius) Pte. Ltd. | Corporate | 1,12,46,336 |
| Bank of Baroda | Corporate | 1,09,86,250 |
The biggest factors to watch are the final NSE IPO price band, valuation, GMP, subscription demand and comparison with listed exchange peer BSE. The company has strong profitability and zero borrowings in the supplied financials, but FY26 revenue and PAT were lower than FY25.
Since the issue is a 100% OFS, investors should also focus carefully on the valuation at which existing shareholders are selling their shares. The final IPO price will be crucial in deciding whether the NSE IPO looks attractive for listing gains or long-term investment.
The NSE IPO opening date, closing date, allotment date and listing date have not yet been announced as of September 6, 2026.
| IPO Event | Date |

| IPO Open | To be declared |
| IPO Close | To be declared |
| Allotment | To be declared |

The NSE IPO is a 100% Offer for Sale, so National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. will not receive IPO proceeds.
The NSE IPO could attract strong investor interest because of NSE's market position, profitability and high margins. However, whether it is a good buy will depend heavily on the final valuation and price band.
The latest supplied NSE IPO GMP is ₹286 as of September 6, 2026. Since the official NSE IPO price band is not yet announced, this GMP cannot currently be used for a reliable listing-price calculation.
The NSE IPO price band has not been announced as of September 6, 2026. The final price band will be important for determining the IPO's valuation and expected listing premium.
Investors comparing NSE IPO and BSE should consider valuation, earnings growth, market share, profitability and future regulatory risks. NSE's final IPO valuation will determine how attractive it is compared with BSE.
The NSE IPO is structured entirely as an OFS, allowing existing shareholders to sell their holdings. NSE itself does not need to raise fresh capital through the issue.
The supplied FY26 financial data shows NSE EPS of ₹41.62. The final IPO P/E will depend on the issue price.
According to the supplied FY24-FY26 financial data, NSE reported zero total borrowings in all three years.
Key risks for the NSE IPO include high valuation, regulatory changes affecting trading volumes, dependence on market activity, competition from BSE and changes in derivatives trading regulations.
Major selling shareholders in the NSE IPO include State Bank of India, MS Strategic (Mauritius), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Aranda Investments and Bank of Baroda.
