NSDL IPO listing today: Company makes strong debut; shares list 15% higher than issue price of Rs 800
National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) shares had a robust start on Wednesday, opening 15% above the issue price of Rs 800. NSDL shares debuted at Rs 880 on the BSE, marking a 10% premium over the issue price. The stock surged further by 15% to reach Rs 920, propelling the company's market valuation to Rs 18,249 crore on the BSE. NSDL's Initial Public Offering (IPO) of Rs 4,011 crore garnered a subscription of 41 times on the closing day of bidding on Friday. Despite NSDL's success, the overall market trend was negative, with the BSE Sensex slipping by 102.09 points or 0.13% to 80,608.16 during Wednesday's trading session. NSDL had previously raised over Rs 1,201 crore from anchor investors. The IPO was priced in the range of Rs 760-800 per share, as reported by PTI. The IPO consisted solely of an Offer For Sale (OFS) component of 5.01 crore shares, with shares being divested by the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE), State Bank of India (SBI), HDFC Bank, IDBI Bank, Union Bank of India, and Administrator of Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of India (SUUTI). As the IPO was entirely an Offer for Sale (OFS), NSDL did not receive any funds directly from the public issue. With this listing, NSDL becomes the second depository in India to be publicly traded, following CDSL, which was listed in 2017.

HYDERABAD: Gopalapuram police have registered five new cases against the head of Srushti Fertility Clinic Dr Athaluri Namratha alias Pachipala Namratha, and others based on complaints lodged by five sets of victims. While in one case a couple alleged that the doctor handed them a baby whose DNA did not match theirs, three other couples accused the clinic of adopting dubious methods.

Warren Buffett's Circle of Competence: An Investing Philosophy
Warren Buffett's Circle of Competence: An Investing Philosophy
Warren Buffett, the billionaire investor behind the success of Berkshire Hathaway, is widely admired not just for his wealth, but for his simple, time-tested investment philosophy. One of his most powerful ideas is the “circle of competence” — the concept that you don’t need to understand everything about every business to be a great investor. Instead, staying within your intellectual comfort zone is the key to making rational, long-term decisions. As Buffett once wrote, understanding your limits is more important than having a vast amount of knowledge. This principle still offers a practical framework for anyone looking to invest wisely in today’s fast-paced market.
