Unlisted shares are equity shares of a company that are not listed on any stock exchange such as the NSE or BSE. These shares are typically traded privately and are less liquid compared to listed shares. Unlisted shares often represent early-stage or privately held companies that are not publicly traded, such as start-ups, private equity-backed companies, or pre-IPO companies.

Investing in unlisted shares can offer the potential for significant capital gains, especially if the company eventually goes public (via an IPO) or is acquired at a premium. Unlisted shares allow investors to invest in growing companies at a potentially lower valuation than post-IPO prices. However, they come with higher risks due to the lack of liquidity, transparency, and the company's business risks.

You'll need to provide the following documents for KYC compliance:

PAN(Self-Attested)
Address Proof (Self-Attested)
NRI Customer Foreign Address Proof
Latest CMR/CML (not older than 7 days) in soft copies.
Cheque copy or Bank Statement
Additional KYC Documents for NON-Individual. (Stamped and Signed by Authorised Signatory)

Investing in unlisted shares is risky due to factors such as:

Illiquidity: Unlisted shares cannot be traded freely on the stock market, so selling them can take longer.

Lack of Information:These companies are not subject to the same disclosure requirements as listed companies, making it difficult to assess their financial health.

High Volatility: The price of unlisted shares can fluctuate widely, especially in the grey market.

Regulatory Risks: There may be regulatory or legal challenges related to unlisted investments.

Listed shares are traded on recognized stock exchanges, offering liquidity and transparency, while unlisted shares are privately traded and do not have the same regulatory oversight, making them more illiquid and riskier.

However, unlisted shares can offer higher potential returns if the company grows and decides to go public.
