NSE becomes 9th most valued company with Rs 4.63 lakh crore m-cap after IPO. Who did it overtake?
NSE is in focus in an ipo & listings development.
24 Sept 2026 · Economic Times Markets, ET Stocks
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) made a rather modest entrance on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), opening at Rs 1,800 against its IPO price of Rs 1,785. With a market capitalization of Rs 4.63 lakh crore, it has emerged as the ninth largest entity in India. Analysts predict that shares may fluctuate due to early trading demand-supply movements.
The analysis
NSE reported Rs 4.63 lakh crore, Rs 1,800 and Rs 1,785. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Why it matters
- Listing activity is a read on risk appetite — a hot primary market usually means a confident secondary one.
- With NSE, BSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
