About NSDL IPO

The NSDL IPO is a book-building public issue comprising 5.01 crore equity shares. This entire offering is an Offer for Sale (OFS), meaning that existing shareholders will sell their shares, and the company will not receive any fresh capital from this issue. This move allows the selling shareholders to partially exit or monetise their holdings while opening the company to public ownership.

As of now, the specific dates for the IPO, including the opening and closing of the subscription window, have not been announced. Similarly, the price band for the IPO is yet to be declared, which will indicate the price range within which investors can place their bids.

The allotment of shares for the NSDL IPO is expected to be finalised after the subscription period, though the exact date will be confirmed closer to the issue launch. The IPO will be managed by a consortium of leading investment banks including ICICI Securities Limited, Axis Capital Limited, HSBC Securities & Capital Markets Pvt Ltd, IDBI Capital Market Services Limited, Motilal Oswal Investment Advisors Limited, and SBI Capital Markets Limited. MUFG Intime India Private Limited (Link Intime) will serve as the registrar to the issue. For complete details, refer to the NSDL IPO Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP).
