NSE IX Launches ‘Global Access’ Platform for Indian Retail Investors to Trade Overseas
In February 2026, the National Stock Exchange Limited International Exchange (NSE IX) launched a ‘NSE IX Global Access’ platform, which allows Indian retail investors and Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) to directly trade in Equities, Debt and Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).
About ‘NSE IX Global Access’ Platform:
Initial Phase: For the initial phase, the NSE IX Global Access platform will provide access to the United States of America (USA)-listed stocks, with plans to expand  to more than 30 international markets over the next 3-6 months.
Investments: The newly launched platform has been designed to provide outbound investments under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) framework of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) which allows resident individuals  to remit a maximum USD 250,000 per financial year overseas investments.

• Investors can commence trading on the platform without the need to open a separate demat account.

Mechanism: Investors will transfer funds in Indian rupees (INR) to the NSE IX–designated bank account, which will subsequently be converted into USD for investing in global markets.
Regulated: The platform is regulated by the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA), complies with LRS guidelines.
