What are the rules for Indian investors?
Let us tell you that it is not easy for retail investors living in India to directly participate in American IPO. American IPOs usually give priority to institutional investors and local retail investors. Indian investors generally get the opportunity to buy shares only after the company is listed in the stock market.
How can one buy shares after listing?
If SpaceX gets listed in the US stock market, then Indian investors can buy its shares through platforms that provide investment in foreign shares. For this, investors will have to follow the rules of the Liberalized Remittance Scheme of the Reserve Bank of India. Apart from this, options to invest in foreign shares can also be available through GIFT City.
