Equity Intraday Trading Regulations for NRIs with FYERS

Are NRIs allowed to participate in equity intraday trading?

As per regulatory guidelines, NRIs are not permitted to engage in equity intraday trading in India. An NRI must take delivery of the shares they purchase and provide delivery of shares when sold. The regulatory framework does not allow NRIs to undertake short selling, meaning they cannot sell shares that they do not own at the time of the transaction.
