Just want to know whether these options enabled in our dhan website and app ?

Thanks, Mahima. A quick related question, will the free trading APIs also support US investments, similar to how they currently reflect Indian investments?image

Good points, @Pradumya and @nitishbangera . While the backend USD structure and the $10 cap for larger orders above $4000 make economic sense, we need a practical solution for the execution friction caused by currency volatility.

Given the current global scenario where the INR has been highly volatile—swinging from a low of ₹96 down to ₹95 and currently hovering around ₹94—a change of even ₹2 to ₹3 introduces a major shift in the actual brokerage cost for a retail trader.

Instead of permanently cluttering the UI with both currencies or creating intrusive pop-ups that block execution speed, Dhan can implement a non-intrusive Smart Volatility Banner Alert directly inside the order window. This dynamic notification would trigger only during high forex swings, cleanly displaying the live exchange rate and its direct impact on the estimated brokerage without requiring an extra click to dismiss.

This preserves the USD backend logic and the benefits for larger trades, while proactively protecting retail traders from unexpected ledger shocks without introducing any execution delays during global market shifts. Let’s see how the Dhan team evaluates this trade-off and what solution they ultimately bring to the platform.

@MahimaShah Could you please confirm the following:

  1. Will order placement and all related functionalities work through the API for the US market, similar to how they currently work for the Indian market?

  2. Is intraday trading supported for US stocks?

  3. Are there any plans to introduce pre-market and post-market trading for US stocks, similar to what Vested offers?

I can’t see US stocks enabled for my account yet. By when it will be rolled out for all users?

I am searching US Listed iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF Shares in Dhan application while in other applications it is showing like Indmoney. For your reference I have attached the screenshot here.

Kindly analyse and revert back.

Just want to know is DHAN US stocks buying selling enabled ?

Just now, I see the US Stocks feature enabled for me after updating the mobile app. Try to update your mobile app, once update is available for you.

For anyone who hasn’t received the US stocks option on Dhan app yet, check playstore for update to version 1.1.3

Most people would have received this update now, Usually I am the last person to receive app updates on Playstore.

Since the last week, I was searching for the banks with lowest charges, IDFC First Bank stood out. All other supported banks have much higher processing fee and forex spread is also above 2%. I am yet to test IDFC in real-world fund transfer on Dhan app.

The onboarding process is less than a minute.

When will I get to see the US stock investments/buy-sell on the Dhan Web? It’s already enabled in the app.

Hi @austin @Vaibhav_Kumar

Welcome to the community.

Currently, we support the 5 banks listed on the platform. We are actively working on adding more banks. Our goal is to make the funding process as seamless and convenient as possible, and we’re continuously working towards improving the experience.

Hi @Anshuk_Jain

UCITS are something we are actively evaluating and are on our roadmap. We hope to make them available in the future, subject to regulatory and operational considerations.

Regarding the $60,000 threshold, it relates to the US estate tax and not to regular investing, holding, or selling of US Stocks. For specific estate planning or tax advice, we would recommend consulting a qualified tax advisor.

I am completely new to US stock investment.

But recently I was studying NSE IX GA platform.

That platform also uses ViewTrade. Can you do a comparison of Dhan US stocks vs NSE IX GA ?

Especially how charges and brokerage differ from that platform?

Thank you.

@MahimaShah @Dhan I still haven’t received this update. When will it be rolled out?

Hi @nitishbangera

We expect this to be fully rolled out by the end of this week.

Hi @encore

As of now, the feature is available only on the Dhan App. We will evaluate bringing it to Dhan Web at a later stage.

@MahimaShah You had mentioned in this thread that it would be done last week and now its delayed to end of this week. Are you certain that I will be able to see the feature by 26th June 2026 in the Dhan App?

@nitishbangera I guess the rollout is in phased manner. Check Playstore regularly for app update to 1.1.3 version. I also received this update today only.

@MahimaShah Any update on this..??
