Companies in the public sector are ready to make bumper profit for their investments in NSE, with the cloud around the proposed initial public offer.

Many large public financial institutions such as LIC, Stock Holding Corporation of India, SBI Capital Markets, SBI and General Insurance Corporation have a interest of around 31 percent worth £ 1.80 Lakh Crore in NSE and they get the chance to make a profit in the proposed IPO.

Interestingly, many of these PSUs are mentioned on the stock markets and unlocking value in their long -term investments in NSE would also benefit investors.

Insurance Behemoth Lic, for example, has a 10.72 percent interest in NSE worth £ 61,687 crore, according to the last traded share price of the £ 2,325 each.

Just as Stock Holding Corporation and SBI capital markets have 4.44 percent and 4.33 percent with a value of £ 25,549 crore and £ 24,916 crore, while SBI and GIC £ 18,587 crore and RS 9,437 crore can obtain with their participations of their participations, respectively.

Ratish Gupta, director, Wealth Wisdom India, said that a partial dilution in the proposed IPO of NSE PSUs will enable part of their business to earn, which may make considerable profits achieved in view of the premium valuation of NSE and this will improve their capital position without requiring budget support.

However, he said that, depending on the scale of dilution, it can reduce their collective influence on NSE strategic decisions, especially if no structured shareholder agreements are stored after the list.

The NSE share race has been won considerably in recent months, because investors have stored shares on the non -listed stock trading platforms.

NSE announced his IPO plans for the first time in 2016. However, it was delayed when the exchange was confronted with a series of regulatory and board memberships. The fair had written Sebi for a NOC with a similar request in November 2019, twice in 2020 and then in August 2024.

Earlier this week, NSE again submitted two applications from the market giver Sebi to arrange the ongoing co-location and dark fibers by offering a total of £ 1,388 crore. If accepted, this is the highest amount offered by an entity to arrange a case to date.

It is believed that Sebi NSE’s request for permission has accepted to arrange things with the payment of RS 1,388 Crore, and will probably give a green signal early next month, says sources.

A request for permission is a settlement mechanism in which Sebi solves the procedure with the parties without blaming. It ensures a faster, less expensive resolution than a fully -fledged legal battle.
