The delay may temper short-term investor enthusiasm for Indian stock exchange listings, but the eventual IPO is expected to be a landmark event. NSE's valuation at over Rs 5 lakh crore could attract significant foreign and domestic investment, boosting the Indian capital markets.

The National Stock Exchange of India's (NSE) long-awaited initial public offering (IPO) is now expected to launch in September 2025, delayed from earlier expectations due to pending regulatory and legal issues. Key hurdles include the long-running co-location and dark fibre cases, for which NSE has proposed a settlement payment of Rs 1,491.21 crore to the India — Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey stated that the regulator has internally approved the settlement, but it has not been formally completed. Additionally, NSE filed a police complaint against Kashmiri Lal Rana for allegedly wrongfully retaining 5,000 NSE shares mistakenly credited to his demat account. The IPO is expected to value NSE at over Rs 5 lakh crore, potentially surpassing Hyundai Motor Company's record Rs 27,870-crore IPO.
