The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has agreed in principle to a settlement of Rs 1,491.21 crore with the National Stock Exchange (NSE) to resolve long-standing regulatory cases related to co-location and dark-fibre allegations. This settlement clears a major hurdle for NSE's planned initial public offering (IPO). NSE reported a 7 percent year-on-year rise in consolidated profit after tax to Rs 3,120 crore for Q1 FY27, with total income up 9 percent. The exchange has already made provisions for the settlement amount in its financial statements.
