New Delhi

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is working to resolve issues linked to the National Stock Exchange’s (NSE) planned initial public offering (IPO). SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said the IPO process will move forward soon once the problems are settled.

Pandey made this statement during an event organized by Assocham. He explained that SEBI and NSE are holding discussions to solve the pending matters. While he didn’t give a clear timeline, he sounded confident the issues would be sorted out soon.

“We will go ahead with it shortly. Discussions are going on. Issues are being resolved,” Pandey said. “I can’t give an exact date, but we will move forward.”

Pandey also assured that SEBI and NSE are working together closely to make the IPO process smooth and fair.

At the same event, NSE Managing Director and CEO Ashish Kumar Chauhan spoke about the strong growth of India’s stock market. He said this growth shows how strong and stable India’s economy has become.

Chauhan shared that India is now the world’s fourth-largest stock market. He added that NSE’s market value has grown massively—from 1994’s start to about ₹440 lakh crore or $5.1 trillion today.

He said that the total value of NSE-listed companies has gone up six times in the past 11 years. India’s stock market is also now more important compared to the country’s economy.

Despite global problems, Chauhan said India remains a stable and attractive place for investors.
