NSE just posted a 33% drop in net profit for July-September 2025, landing at ₹2,098 crore versus last year's ₹3,137 crore.
The main reason? A hefty one-time provision of ₹1,297 crore tied to settling the Co-location and Dark Fibre case with SEBI.

Trading activity cools off, IPO still on hold

Operational revenue fell by 18%, while expenses shot up by 81%, squeezing profits even more.
Trading activity also cooled off: average daily volumes dropped across cash, equity futures, and options segments.
NSE's much-anticipated IPO is still on hold until SEBI wraps up its review.
