In nine months of FY26, seven municipal corporations collectively raised nearly Rs 750 crore —the highest number of municipal bond issuances recorded in any financial year since the introduction of SEBI’s Municipal Bond Regulations in 2015.
It was the first results by NSE which has received SEBI’s no-objection certificate for an IPO.
Meanwhile, NSE Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Ashishkumar Chauhan said it will take around three to four months to prepare the draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP), which is a key document required for launching the IPO.

He said that along with preparing the DRHP, NSE will also work in parallel on the offer for sale (OFS) part of the IPO. “It will take 3-4 months for the draft of Red Herring Prospectus to be made,” Chauhan had told IANS.
The exchange currently has around 1.91 lakh existing shareholders, and those who are eligible and willing to sell their shares through OFS will be able to participate in the process.
