**Mumbai, January 29, 2025** – ITC Hotels, the hospitality arm of ITC Limited, commenced trading independently on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) today.

Estimates range widely. Nuvama predicts a listing price between ₹150 and ₹175, while Sharekhan anticipates a premium listing between ₹150 and ₹170. Nomura, however, projects a significantly higher listing price of ₹200-₹300, with a potential market capitalization of ₹42,500 crore to ₹62,200 crore.

Interestingly, while ITC Hotels will initially be part of the benchmark indices BSE Sensex and Nifty 50, this inclusion is temporary, lasting only three trading days unless a circuit breaker is triggered.
