Shares of IEX have crashed nearly 28% to the day's low of Rs 135.2 on NSE after the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) formally approved the implementation of market coupling for India's power sector.

The first Indian woman to launch a mutual fund business The CERC's order, issued late Wednesday, sets in motion the coupling of the Day-Ahead Market (DAM) by January 2026, under which multiple power exchanges will submit buy and sell orders to a central Market Coupling Operator (MCO). The MCO will aggregate these bids to discover a single market-clearing price across platforms. This development is expected to have significant implications for IEX, which currently holds a dominant position in the day-ahead and real-time segments of electricity trading. The stock, which was already under pressure in recent sessions, opened with a significant gap down and hit the lower circuit limit, triggering widespread investor concerns.
