In a post on X, Kamath highlighted NSE's extraordinary profitability and dividend-paying ability, noting that the exchange generated more than ₹10,300 crore in profit during FY26 and distributed around ₹8,660 crore as dividends, translating into a payout ratio of 84%.

NSE IPO LIVE: BSE growth faces fresh reality check ahead of NSE IPO
BSE’s explosive growth in equity derivatives is facing a reality check, with regulatory changes, lower market volatility and a high base expected to substantially moderate options volumes, according to brokerage reports.
Bernstein, which initiated coverage of Indian exchanges on September 8, said equity-options volumes could grow just 5% in FY27, sharply below the 31% YoY growth recorded in Q1FY27. The brokerage attributed the slowdown to lower India VIX, the CAS introduced from August 1, tighter RBI leverage norms and a high base.
The impact of CAS has already become visible. Bernstein found that during the August 1-28 period, BSE’s options premium average daily turnover fell 22%, compared with a 14% decline at NSE. BSE also saw contracts traded decline 30%, against a 7% fall at NSE.
