NSE IX and GIFT Nifty’s Global Reach
GIFT Nifty operates through NSE International Exchange, or NSE IX, an international multi-asset exchange established at GIFT City in 2017.
NSE IX provides trading in Indian single-stock and index derivatives, currency derivatives, depository receipts and global stocks. It also offers primary-market products, including equity shares, REITs, InvITs and debt securities.
According to the exchange, GIFT Nifty and NSE IX have also received regulatory exemptions that allow US customers to participate in derivative contracts listed on NSE IX. This is intended to support wider international participation on the platform.
