Mumbai: XED Executive Development, which was set to become the first company from GIFT City's IFSC to tap the public markets, said it has decided to pull back its initial public offering, citing cautious mood among investors. "The company decided to withdraw the public issue in the current environment and hopes to tap the market at an appropriate time in the future," the company said in a release XED said although retail investors showed strong interest, many were unable to complete their applications due to KYC-related procedural issues, while participation from institutional investors remained subdued.

XED said that given the relatively limited float, moving ahead at this stage could have exposed the stock to post-listing price pressure.
