IPO Review

[Dilip Davda]
NSDL is engaged as a pioneer in depository services in India and is an ice breaker for the demat process. The company is expanding its horizon with more value-added services and options. The company posted steady growth in its top and bottom lines. It paid dividends for FY23 and FY24 at 50%. Based on its recent financial data, the issue appears fully priced. Investors may grab this opportunity to invest in this evergreen company for medium to long term.
