The Securities and Exchange Board of India has approved the initial public offerings of National Securities Depository Ltd., Standard Glass Lining Technology Ltd., and Zinka Logistics Solutions Ltd.
NSDL has received SEBI clearance more than a year after the company submitted its preliminary IPO to the regulator in July 2023. The depository obtained SEBI's observation on Sept. 30, according to an update on the SEBI website.
Both Standard Glass Lining Technology and Zinka Logistics Solutions had filed their respective draft IPO papers with Sebi in July 2024.
In SEBI's parlance, obtaining its observation means go-ahead to launch public issues.
National Securities Depository
Leading depository National Securities Depository Ltd.'s IPO is a complete offer for sale of more than 5.72 crore equity shares by shareholders, as per the draft red herring prospectus.
Under the OFS, IDBI Bank plans to offload 2.22 crore shares, NSE will divest 1.80 crore shares, Union Bank of India will sell 56.25 lakh shares, and State Bank of India and HDFC Bank will each offload 40 lakh shares.
NSDL will not receive any proceeds from the IPO, as the public issue is completely an OFS.
NSDL is a SEBI-registered market infrastructure institution offering a wide range of products and services to the financial and securities markets in India. Following the introduction of the Depositories Act in 1996, NSDL pioneered the dematerialisation of securities in India in November of that year.
This will mark the country's second publicly traded depository to list on the bourse, after Central Depository Services got listed on NSE in 2017.
