Limitations on Investing Outside India | This is Not Allowed!Added:
As an Indian, I don't want to use this market to invest in. Government point of view is limitations. You can do or transfer up to 2 and 1/2 lakh dollars.
So, $250,000 a year. This is per individual. So, that's one limit and then the other is what you can or cannot invest in. So, you basically cannot do derivatives. That becomes something if you were looking at F&O exposure, you cannot do that. You cannot borrow, so you can't do margin.
>> Pledging, merging, all that.
You can't do FX trading. If you're looking at investing or if you're looking at just equity trading, those are things you can.
