NSE IPO Exclusive: Is six months lock-in a challenge? MD-CEO Ashishkumar Chauhan answers | Stock Market News
NSE's much-awaited IPO opens on 17 September 2026, with a price band of ₹1,700 to ₹1,785 per share. Pre-IPO investors face a six-month lock-in, so only offer-for-sale shares will trade at first. NSE's MD said big shareholders are unlikely to sell, as the price sits below their expectations. If you plan to apply, check the band carefully before bidding.
