The National Stock Exchange (NSE) is preparing to launch its initial public offering (IPO), which is projected to yield significant financial gains for a select group of shareholders. According to the company's prospectus, these shareholders could collectively gain approximately ₹16,500 crore from the IPO. This estimated profit is calculated by comparing the anticipated sale price of ₹1,785 per share against the lower acquisition costs incurred by the shareholders.
The biggest gainers are expected to be state-owned entities, including the State Bank of India, which is set to earn around ₹2,851 crore from selling 15.97 million shares. The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Mauritius-based investors, Aranda Investments and MS Strategic, are also anticipated to benefit substantially, with gains of approximately ₹2,120 crore and ₹1,964 crore respectively.
Other major beneficiaries include The New India Assurance Company and SBI Capital Markets. However, the size of the shares being offered has been reduced from the initially proposed figures, with the total shares available for sale now at around 126 million, down from the earlier proposal of nearly 149 million shares.
