August 14, 2025, and today is a big day for investors! The shares of JSW Cement , part of the JSW Group , are set to list on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE). This comes after their ₹3,600 crore Initial Public Offering (IPO) was a hit, getting bids 7.77 times more than expected.
