Why Is NSDL Share Price Falling For The Second Consecutive Day

The National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) has seen its share price decline for the second straight session, following the announcement of its Q1 FY26 results. Despite a strong debut earlier this month, the stock has lost significant ground in recent days, drawing attention from investors and market watchers.

NSDL Q1 FY26 Earnings Results

For Q1 FY26, NSDL reported a consolidated net profit of ₹89.63 crore, up over 15% from ₹77.82 crore in the same quarter last year. Expenses during the quarter dropped more than 14% year-on-year to ₹228 crore.

However, the company’s revenue from operations fell 7.5% year-on-year to ₹312 crore, compared with ₹337 crore in Q1 FY25. Sequentially, the revenue decline was sharper, falling over 14% from ₹364 crore reported in Q4 FY25.

From Strong Debut To Sharp Decline

NSDL made its market debut on August 6, listing at ₹880 per share on the BSE, a 10% premium to its IPO price. The stock surged as much as 62% from its listing price, and over 78% from its IPO price, to hit an all-time high of ₹1,425 per share in just four sessions.

However, in the last 3 trading sessions, the share price has dropped nearly 18% from this peak, indicating a sharp reversal in market sentiment.

NSDL Share Price Performance

On August 14, 2025,  NSDL share price fell nearly 3% to an intraday low of ₹1,161.50 after opening flat. This followed a 6% drop the previous day, when it closed at ₹1,206 apiece. The decline came shortly after the company released its earnings for the April to June quarter of FY26.

Conclusion

The recent fall in NSDL share price follows a combination of earnings release and changing market sentiment after a sharp post-listing rally. Investors will now be watching how the stock stabilises in the coming days.
