How to Check NSE IPO Allotment Status

Method 1: Via MUFG Intime India Pvt. Ltd. (Registrar)

MUFG Intime India Pvt. Ltd. is the official registrar for this IPO and the fastest source for allotment data, since it manages the process directly.

  • Visit the MUFG Intime India Pvt. Ltd. IPO allotment status page.
  • Select “National Stock Exchange of India Limited” from the company dropdown.
  • Choose your verification method — PAN, Application Number, or DP/Client ID.
  • Enter the details and submit to view your allotment status.

Method 2: Via BSE

  • Visit the BSE Application Status Check page.
  • Select “National Stock Exchange of India Limited” as the issue name.
  • Enter your Application Number and PAN.
  • Submit to view your status. Data stays available on BSE for about a week after issue closure.

A note on NSE

NSE shares are listed on the BSE, not on NSE’s own platform; an exchange cannot list its own securities on its own exchange. There is no separate NSE-side status-check method for this particular IPO; use the registrar or BSE as above.

How Is the Basis of Allotment Decided?

The basis of allotment follows SEBI’s standard framework and is the same across mainboard IPOs, including NSE. In the retail category, if the issue is oversubscribed, allotment is done through a computerised lottery (draw of lots), so each successful applicant gets at least one full lot rather than a partial allocation. In the NII and QIB categories, allotment is proportionate to the shares bid for, subject to the rounding rules the registrar applies when a category is oversubscribed.

What Happens If You’re Not Allotted Shares?

If you don’t receive an allotment in the NSE IPO, the amount blocked in your bank account under ASBA is automatically unblocked; there’s no separate refund request needed. This release is tentatively expected around Wednesday, 23 September 2026, the same day successful applicants see shares credited to their demat accounts. Given the scale of this issue and the retail-friendly reservation (at least 35% of the offer), if your funds remain blocked beyond a few working days after this date, check with your bank or UPI app before contacting the registrar.

What Will NSE Do With the IPO Proceeds?

This is unlike most IPOs covered on this page: the NSE IPO is entirely an offer for sale of roughly 12.64 crore shares by 23 existing shareholders. There is no fresh issue at all, so NSE itself does not raise any capital or receive any of the proceeds. All net proceeds go directly to the selling shareholders, in proportion to the shares each of them sells, including large holders such as State Bank of India, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Aranda Investments (Mauritius), Bank of Baroda and several public-sector insurance companies.

What Is National Stock Exchange of India Limited?

The National Stock Exchange of India Limited was incorporated in 1992 and is today India’s largest stock exchange and among the world’s leading multi-asset exchange platforms, spanning trading, clearing, settlement, listing, market data and index services across equities, derivatives, currency derivatives, commodities, debt and mutual funds. As of 30 June 2026, NSE reported over 261 million registered investor accounts, around 129 million unique investors, 1,328 trading members and 3,005 listed companies, with roughly a 99.8% market share in equity futures and a 93-94% market share in the cash market. NSE has no identifiable promoter; its shareholding is entirely public, both before and after this IPO.

The listing itself follows a formal No-Objection Certificate SEBI granted in January 2026, after years of anticipation around when the exchange would go public, with NSE’s governing board passing enabling resolutions earlier in 2026 before the draft red herring prospectus was filed in June 2026.
