IFCI Shares Hit Over Two-Month High; Extend Advance On NSE IPO Expectations
The non-banking financial company IFCI Ltd. extended its advance for the second day and hit over two-month high on Tuesday on hopes of the listing of the National Stock Exchange.
NSE IPO Expectations Boost IFCI Shares
Securities & Exchange Board of India chief Tuhin Kanta Pandey on Saturday said that NSE is likely to receive a no-objection certificate from the regulator for its public issue by the end of this month. This announcement has boosted the hopes of investors, leading to a surge in IFCI shares.
According to shareholder information on the NSE, Stock Holding Corporation of India holds 4.4% stake. However, in 2024 IFCI received the approval to merge Stock Holding Corporation of India into itself. This means that IFCI through the Stock Holding Corporation of India holds stake in NSE, pushing the stock to its fresh two-month high.
IFCI’s Stake in NSE
ICRA in a December 20024 report had said, ‘IFCI will benefit from the sizeable stake held by Stock Holding Corporation (SHCIL) in the National Stock Exchange, thus improving its financial flexibility.’ This stake is expected to provide a significant boost to IFCI’s financials, making it an attractive investment opportunity for investors.
