Key Questions Answered
The initial public offering of the National Stock Exchange of India received nearly 6 times subscription on its final day, generating nearly Rs 90,300 crore of demand against an issue size of Rs 22,569 crore.
NSE shares are scheduled to make their official market debut on September 24.
Because the public issue is entirely an Offer for Sale (OFS) of up to 12.64 crore equity shares by existing shareholders, all proceeds from the share sale will accrue directly to those existing shareholders rather than the exchange itself.
