NSE Q4 Profit Rises 8% to Rs 2,871 Crore; FY26 Profit Declines 15%

The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) reported an 8% year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit to Rs 2,871 crore for Q4 FY26, driven by higher trading volumes in equity cash and derivatives markets. Revenue from transaction charges grew 34% quarter-on-quarter to Rs 4,077 crore, contributing significantly to total income of Rs 5,360 crore. Expenses increased due to higher CSR provisions and settlement-related costs. For FY26, NSE's net profit declined 15% to Rs 10,302 crore amid moderated market activity, while the board recommended a Rs 35 per share dividend, including a Rs 10 special payout, subject to shareholder approval.
