In 2024, India's National Stock Exchange (NSE) achieved a record by raising ₹1.67 lakh crore (approximately $19.5 billion) through 268 initial public offerings (IPOs), surpassing all other global markets in both capital raised and IPO count. The NSE's performance outpaced that of the US and China, positioning it as a leader in the Asian IPO market. This surge reflects a robust interest in public listings, with expectations for 2025 indicating that fundraising could exceed ₹2 lakh crore as the primary market continues to gain momentum.
