NSDL IPO: What GMP signals ahead of launch and what it means for investors
ADVERTISEMENT GMPs, though unofficial and based on grey market trading, are often seen as a barometer of investor enthusiasm ahead of a public listing. A premium of this magnitude suggests that NSDL's IPO could deliver healthy listing gains, especially given the company's critical role in India's financial infrastructure and its prominent institutional backing.
The NSDL IPO opens for public subscription on July 30, 2025, and closes on August 1, 2025, with anchor bidding scheduled for July 29. The company aims to raise Rs 4,011.6 crore through this offer, priced between Rs 760 and Rs 800 per share.

SUUTI, which had invested just Rs 68.3 lakh in its 34.15 lakh shares, is expected to generate Rs 273.2 crore from the sale.Even HDFC Bank, which acquired its stake at a higher price of Rs 108.29 per share, will see a significant return of around 638%.

ED took up 5,892 PMLA cases since 2015, got convictions of 15: Govt to Rajya Sabha
The Finance Ministry has informed Rajya Sabha that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) took up 5,892 cases under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) since 2015 and secured the conviction of 15 people from these cases during the period. Union Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary said in a written reply: 'In these cases, 1,398 Prosecution Complaints (PCs), including 353 Supplementary PCs have been filed before the respective Special Courts under PMLA. Out of which, so far, the Special Courts have framed charges in 300 Prosecution Complaints including 66 Supplementary PCs and the PMLA Special Courts have convicted 15 persons in eight conviction orders in these cases till June 30.' The minister said that the ED has filed closure reports before the special PMLA court in 49 of the total cases. In an annual report 2024-25, ED Director Rahul Navin said: 'In the early years of administering PMLA, most cases pertained to drug-related offences. Till March 2014, only 1,883 Enforcement Case Information Reports (ECIRs) had been registered — averaging fewer than 200 annually — and just 84 Prosecution Complaints (PCs) were filed, with assets under attachment only Rs 5,171.32 crore.' 'Between April 2014 and March 2024, there has been a significant scale-up in enforcement activity, with 5,113 PMLA investigations initiated — averaging 511 ECIRs annually — and 1,332 PCs filed. I am pleased to report that building on this momentum, in FY- 2024-25, 775 new PMLA investigations were launched, 333 PCs were filed, and notably, 34 individuals were convicted,' he said.

SC hearing next week, Sports City builders start repaying their dues
Noida: Following Noida Authority's notices to developers, some builders involved in the Noida Sports City projects have initiated payments to start clearing their outstanding dues. Notably, a consortium partner in the Sector 150 Sports City project led by Lotus Green Constructions has deposited Rs 80 crore. Officials said that several other consortium partners in the Sector 150 Sports City project have expressed willingness to pay and are likely to follow suit soon. In March, the Authority had issued notices directing developers to settle long-pending dues within a month, in compliance with a high court order issued in Feb. These dues include pending premiums, interest on premiums, penalty interest, lease rent, time extension fees, and the 64.7% additional compensation amount. An official said that 62 notices were issued to various developers across the four Sports City projects in the city. These projects collectively owe Rs 11,000 crore in dues to the Authority. You Can Also Check: Noida AQI | Weather in Noida | Bank Holidays in Noida | Public Holidays in Noida While the projects were originally awarded to four lead developers, they later subdivided the plots and sub-leased them to their consortium partners. In a set of rulings on Feb 24 this year, the Allahabad High Court directed the Authority to issue notices to all stakeholders, demanding payment of outstanding dues, including interest and penalties. It warned that failure to comply would result in the automatic cancellation of allotments. Exposing what it described as a "dirty nexus" between real estate developers and Noida Authority officials, the high court had ordered investigations by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) into three of four Sports City projects, citing massive financial and planning irregularities. A division bench comprising Justices Mahesh Chandra Tripathi and Prashant Kumar passed 10 separate judgments detailing violations of land use norms, misappropriation of public land, financial mismanagement, and a systematic failure to construct the promised sports infrastructure. In response, many developers approached the Supreme Court, challenging the High Court's verdict. While the apex court did not stay the CBI and ED investigations, it restrained the agencies from taking any coercive action against the developers for the time being. The next round of hearings is scheduled for the first week of Aug. To oversee compliance, the Authority constituted a committee, led by an additional CEO, to pursue recoveries, enforce court-mandated timelines, and monitor the development of the sports infrastructure. The court's scrutiny has focused on Sports City projects in Sectors 78, 79, and 101, developed by Xanadu Estate, and two major projects in Sector 150, developed by Logix Infra Developers and Lotus Greens Constructions. The fourth project is led by ATS Homes in Sector 152. Developers were found to have violated project norms by prioritising residential and commercial development over the mandated sports facilities, which were supposed to occupy 70% of the allotted land. The Xanadu and Logix projects are both currently under insolvency proceedings, which the court criticised as strategic attempts to evade liabilities. First conceptualised in 2004 and launched between 2010 and 2016, the Sports City projects were planned across 798 acres in Noida, promising world-class sports infrastructure, including three golf courses and an international cricket stadium. However, developers focused instead on residential and commercial construction, failing to deliver the promised sports infrastructure.

26 years after shutting down lotteries, cash-strapped Himachal makes U-turn
KULLU: Cash-strapped Himachal Pradesh is trying its luck with lottery to turn its fortunes. The cabinet has allowed lottery operations, which were shut down in 1999. Burdened with a debt of over Rs 1 lakh crore, it hopes to make a modest Rs 50 crore to Rs 100 crore annually from sale of lottery tickets. The decision to reintroduce lotteries after over a quarter century was taken in a cabinet meeting on July 31. The recommendation came from a cabinet sub-committee set up to give suggestions to boost state revenue. The move seems to be inspired by other states that run lotteries. Neighbouring Punjab earned Rs 235 crore through sale of lottery tickets during the 2024-25 fiscal while the tiny state of Sikkim made Rs 30 crore. Kerala tops the list - the southern state earned a jaw-dropping Rs 13,582 crore last fiscal. Himachal, which is finding it difficult to meet the expenses of rebuilding the damage caused by this year's landslides and flash floods, hopes to mop up some much-needed funds this way. "Many states earn through lotteries. You will be surprised to know how much Kerala earns. Himachal Pradesh govt has decided to restart the lottery system after a recommendation was made by a cabinet sub-committee," said industries minister Harshwardhan Chauhan.

The decision to reintroduce lotteries in Himachal has come at a time when the state's debt stands at a back-breaking Rs 1,04,729 crore, and the per capita debt has reached Rs 1.17 lakh, the second highest after Arunachal Pradesh. To make the financial situation even worse, the revenue deficit grant, financial assistance from the Centre, has come down from Rs 6,258 crore in 2024 to Rs 3,257 crore in 2025, and GST compensation has been stopped by the Union govt. Govt is expected to introduce the bill on lotteries in the monsoon session of assembly, beginning Aug banned lotteries, both state-run and from outside, in 1999 during Prem Kumar Dhumal's tenure as chief minister. Lotteries are legal in 13 states - Punjab, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Goa, Bengal, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, and Assam.
