CDSL shares slide 13% in one week as NSDL IPO picks pace
Shares of Central Depository Services (India) Ltd have slumped more than 13% over the past week, including a 1.8% dip on Thursday, as investor attention turns to the highly anticipated initial public offering of rival National Securities Depository Ltd. With NSDL's IPO opening this week to strong institutional demand, investors appear to be re-evaluating CDSL's premium valuation in light of its larger competitor's public market debut. ADVERTISEMENT India's securities market is witnessing a shift in sentiment as NSDL, the country's first and largest depository, prepares to list on the stock exchanges. Its IPO, which opened on Wednesday, July 30, has already garnered strong institutional interest. Anchor investors subscribed to Rs 1,201 crore worth of shares ahead of the public offering, with grey market activity indicating a listing premium of 15–18%. NSDL, incorporated in 1996, has long held a dominant position in institutional custody and infrastructure services. While CDSL gained prominence during the post-pandemic retail investing surge, NSDL's strengths lie in scale, institutional depth, and infrastructure. 'NSDL presents a compelling IPO opportunity, underpinned by its market leadership, robust technology-driven infrastructure, and stable recurring revenue model. With dominant market share and diversified asset coverage, it's well-positioned for long-term growth,' said Saurabh Jain, Equity Head at SMC Global rapid ascent since its 2017 listing at Rs 125 was fuelled by a retail investing boom, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The stock has returned 165% over three years and is up 21.6% in the last 12 months. But that momentum appears to be tapering off. ADVERTISEMENT On Monday, July 28, shares fell 4% after the company reported a 23.7% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 102.40 crore for Q1 FY26. Revenue from operations rose only marginally by 0.55% YoY to Rs 258.81 crore. Sequentially, net profit was up 2% from Q4 demat account growth now stabilising, investor focus is shifting from topline expansion to profitability, operational leverage, and infrastructure scale, areas where NSDL holds a definitive lead. ADVERTISEMENT Vaibhav Vidwani, Research Analyst at Bonanza, said that 'CDSL, India's only listed depository, currently holds a market cap of around Rs 32,000 crore. In contrast, NSDL's upcoming IPO is expected to value it at roughly Rs 16,000 crore — a notable discount considering NSDL's much larger scale across key metrics.'As of FY25, NSDL holds securities worth Rs 464 trillion, roughly 6.5 times CDSL's Rs 71 trillion. It also leads in the number of non-retail investor accounts, with over 10.47 lakh such accounts compared to CDSL's 2.17 lakh. While CDSL has the edge in retail demat accounts, Vidwani noted that NSDL earns nearly three times more revenue per investor, an indicator of its superior operational efficiency. ADVERTISEMENT Vidwani pointed out that NSDL is also the preferred platform for companies looking to hold shares in dematerialised form. As of FY23, around 40,897 companies were linked to NSDL, nearly double the 20,323 associated with CDSL. This suggests NSDL plays a deeper role in the country's capital market CDSL's growth has been driven by rising retail participation in recent years, NSDL's strength lies in institutional flows and its dominance in the F&O segment. Vidwani said this contrast in business models explains the current valuation gap and reflects investor confidence in NSDL's long-term growth prospects. ADVERTISEMENT While NSDL's IPO is drawing comparisons to CDSL's multifold rally post-2017, analysts caution against viewing it as a repeat of the same growth cycle.'After COVID, many retail investors started investing in the market, which helped CDSL grow quickly. This led to a big jump in new accounts, especially in FY22. But in FY23, this growth slowed down. As retail growth starts to settle, the market may start focusing more on core strengths like how much money each investor brings in and how strong a company is with big institutional clients. In these areas, NSDL is stronger, which makes it attractive in the long run,' Vidwani the top end of its IPO price band (Rs 800), NSDL is valued at around 47 times FY25 earnings, a discount to CDSL's current price-to-earnings ratio of over 70.

NSDL IPO GMP steady at 17% despite market crash on Trump tariffs
NSDL IPO GMP today: The grey market premium for the unlisted shares of National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL), the country's largest depository, remained steady on Thursday, July 31, despite a broader market crash triggered by US President Donald Trump's announcement of a 25 per cent trade tariff on Indian exports. NSDL launched its Initial Public Offering (IPO) on July 30, which has received a favorable response from investors. As of now, the issue has been oversubscribed nearly three times. According to sources tracking grey market activity, NSDL shares were exchanging hands at around ₹935–₹937 per share. This reflects a grey market premium (GMP) of ₹135–₹137, or approximately 16.88 per cent - 17.12 per cent, over the upper end of the IPO price band. Notably, this trading range is consistent with the levels seen on July 30, the day the IPO was launched.

As the public issue is an OFS, NSDL will not receive any proceeds from it; the funds raised through the offering will go to the existing shareholders who are divesting part of their stakes. The NSDL IPO is set to close for subscription on August 1. Following the close of the subscription window, the basis of allotment for NSDL IPO shares is likely to be finalised on August 4, while shares will be credited into demat accounts by August 5. Shares of NSDL are slated to list on the BSE and NSE tentatively on August 6.

This translates to an oversubscription of 2.87 times. Among investor categories, non-institutional investors (NIIs) led the demand, with the category reserved for them subscribed 5.27 times. This was followed by retail investors, who oversubscribed 2.85 times the portion reserved for them.
