The shares of NSDL had made a decent stock market debut on August 6, listing at 10 percent premium to IPO price at Rs 880 apiece on BSE. Analysts had advised investors to consider holding the stock for the long term, given NSDL’s strong fundamentals and leadership in the depository segment. The Rs 4,000-crore IPO had turned out to be a multi-bagger for some of India’s top financial institutions.
