‘Thought we won't be poor anymore': Noida man's account credited with Rs 1 billion 13 lakh crore due to app glitch, then frozen
It was just another Sunday. Dileep Singh (20), a Class 12 dropout from Noida, decided it was time for a change. He had been using his old phone for some time, and was finally switching to a new one. He carefully transferred his SIM card into the new device, ready to set it up. But things didn't go as smoothly as expected. Once the device was on, his mobile data wasn't working. He quickly recharged his phone, reinstalled all his applications, and started logging into each of them. Then came the moment that changed everything. He opened a digital finance app. As the interface loaded and his account balance appeared, Dileep blinked in disbelief. The number on his screen didn't seem real. 'I couldn't believe it,' he said. 'It was an amount with 37 digits. The balance read: Rs 10,01,35,60,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,23,56,00,00,00,00,299. (1 billion, 13 lakh and 55 thousand crore)'. The astronomical sum meant he was richer than Forbes billionaires. 'For a few seconds, I thought, I was dreaming. Then, I informed my grandmother about it,' he said. Dileep lost his mother two months ago and his father 10 years ago. After losing his parents, he had been staying with her maternal grandmother, Maya Devi (65). 'I asked him to transfer some money from his account to someone and check. I was so happy. I thought we will not be poor anymore,' Maya Devi told The Indian Express. When he attempted to transfer the money, he could not. 'There was a message instead. Message mein tha ki koi technical issue hai bank se (The message said that there was a technical issue with the bank). After I tried transferring again, my account was frozen,' he said. Deepak said he was told by the bank that his account was frozen for a probe. According to the officers of Dankaur Police Station, a technical glitch in the digital finance app appears to have caused the app to erroneously display such an inflated account balance. 'This was likely due to a bug and only appeared within the app. Upon logging into his account through another application, Deepak's current balance showed to be zero. Further, an official bank statement was obtained via email, which also confirmed no account balance like before,' said the officer. When contacted, Station House Officer Munendra Singh confirmed that it was a bug that caused the confusion. 'We verified the claims. There is no amount in his account. We have not received any complaint from the consumer and therefore are not taking any legal action,' he said. Meanwhile, Deepak said that he had visited the bank and officials told him that his account will be recovered in two to three working days. Neetika Jha is a Correspondent with The Indian Express.

NSDL likely to give a 15% listing pop to investors
Kant said if the stock falls 5- 10% below the upper price band of Rs 800 in the near term, which is likely, it will be a better opportunity for investors from a long term perspective. NSDL's ₹4,012 crore IPO is expected to see a 15% listing pop on Wednesday, with analysts suggesting investors hold for potential further gains due to valuation discounts compared to CDSL. The IPO was subscribed 41.01 times, priced at ₹760-800 per share. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Mumbai: Investors who put money in National Securities Depository Ltd's ₹4,012 crore initial public offering (IPO) can expect a listing pop of around 15% on Wednesday. Analysts said investors could hold the stock beyond the debut day as a discount in valuation to its larger peer, CDSL, could result in further upside."NSDL offers investors a relatively safer bet amid this uncertain environment as most listed entities and sectors are expected to be impacted by tariffs," said Dharmesh Kant, head of research, Cholamandalam grey market premium - the price in the unofficial market that investors pay for the shares before listing - was at ₹128 for NSDL on Tuesday, a 15% premium to the upper price band of ₹800. NSDL shares in the unofficial market have fallen nearly 40% from the peak after the company's IPO price band fell below expectations."NSDL was trading in the unlisted market around ₹1,025, then after the price band was announced there was a dip in the GMP," said Abhishek Pandya, research analyst, StoxBox. "After the IPO was announced, the investor sentiment turned positive and listing gains of around 13-15% are expected."Though CDSL is a bigger depository with 15.86 crore accounts compared to NSDL's 4 crore accounts, analysts are optimistic about the smaller depository's client profile.'In the current market cycle, NSDL is at an advantage since it has institutional and HNI clients and lower retail participation as retail investors can turn cautious in the current uncertain market environment,' said Pandya. 'Fresh investors can wait until the first quarter results to buy.' The NSDL IPO was priced in the band of Rs 760-800 per share and was subscribed 41.01 times on Friday, its final day of bidding. Narendra Solanki, head of fundamental research — Investment Services, Anand Rathi Shares and Stockbrokers, said valuation in the IPO was 'decently lower' .NSDL is valued at 46 times the Price to Earnings (PE) ratio while CDSL is at 64 times. 'Investors who got allotment should hold the shares for the next one year. NSDL is expected to close the valuation gap, implying further upside potential of 12-15% over the listing gains,' said Pandya. Kant said if the stock falls 5- 10% below the upper price band of Rs 800 in the near term, which is likely, it will be a better opportunity for investors from a long term perspective.
