NSE opens the way for ₹10 billion in tokenized bond issuances

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India has officially integrated tokenization technology into its Electronic Bidding Platform to modernize the corporate bond market. This initiative saw the successful completion of the country's first tokenized bond issuances, with REC Limited and Larsen & Toubro Limited raising a combined total of ₹10 billion. The technology was unveiled on September 10, 2026, at the Global Fintech Fest in Mumbai, with formal support from the Reserve Bank of India and the Securities and Exchange Board of India. Larsen & Toubro specifically executed a ₹5 billion issuance, showcasing the viability of tokenized assets for private-sector entities. The process involved major financial institutions including State Bank of India, Yes Bank, and HDFC Mutual Fund, who participated as investors or arrangers. This development marks a significant shift toward digital infrastructure in Indian capital markets, aiming to create scalable, regulated solutions for debt issuance. By leveraging blockchain-based tokenization, the NSE seeks to enhance efficiency and transparency within the domestic financial ecosystem.

NSE enables India’s first tokenised corporate bond issuances worth Rs 1,000 crore

The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) has successfully executed the country's first tokenized corporate bond issuances, totaling Rs 1,000 crore. REC Limited and Larsen & Toubro each raised Rs 500 crore through the NSE Electronic Bidding Platform (NSE EBP) under the SEBI Regulatory Sandbox Framework. The REC issuance, which saw a 7.9 times subscription rate, was finalized at a 7.30 per cent coupon rate. Formally unveiled at the Global Fintech Fest 2026, the initiative utilizes Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) to represent and manage securities digitally. This milestone is significant as it integrates tokenization into India's existing digital settlement infrastructure to facilitate atomic settlement and improve operational transparency. By demonstrating the scalability of DLT for both public and private sector issuers, the NSE is positioning itself to modernize the broader corporate bond market. This development marks a critical regulatory and technological step toward institutionalizing blockchain-based securities management within the Indian capital markets.
