Nice, thanks for the confirmation.
US Stocks have now been rolled out to all the users!
Do check it out and let us know your experience!
A Few Quick Questions , since you have enabled through GIFT City Route
- Whether Margin Intraday Trading will be made available
- When ETH(Electronic Trading Hours) is available & also the charts
- When funds in Dhan main account - will be made available for trading US Stocks
I guess NEVER
Because there is LRS limit check & TCS checks that can happen via Bank account only. Money added for Indian stocks get checked neither for LRS nor TCS.
- Margin based intraday trading is NOT allowed under LRS. However, you can buy and sell on the same day without leverage.
- Trading happens at the US Trading hours. However, you can place AMO orders round the clock
- Rightly said by @Pradumya For buying US stocks, you need to remit funds from your Bank Account as this goes under RBI’s LRS and TCS Check Framework. Hence, funds in Dhan cannot be used to buy US Stocks.
Well if you have funds in your Dhan main account or in LiquidETFs, Dhan should look at a mechanism for multiple withdrawals so that the users have a mechanism to pull money out to the bank account and then accordingly move to US Stocks from the bank account.
I feel currently what has been provided is just a basic platform for US stocks without much thought on what all is there around it and its still a long way till this product becomes a good product for US stocks. This also taps into the FOMO where everyone now wants to put money into US stocks and hence seamlessness isn’t the top priority.
@dhan Allow to modify the bank in US account
Hi @ssolanki
Will be done in the next build.
@dhan When will it release?
- On Intraday Trade: One can trade US Futures & Global Futures too via margin trade, if one has Office in GIFT City. You went through GIFT City Route. So asked (FEMA barring margin trade for ones, not having office there). You already Allowed Margin traded ETF …
- In Electronic Trading Hours - Pre Market & Post Market buy/sell trade may happen, as Limit orders is permissible in US.
- If LRS etc is genuine = One can Invest via US Brokers directly. No need of hassles.
- Is Smart Routing done Or fixed exchange routing done = Expecting too much, as that’s not happening with NSE & BSE itself, for Trading. 3 years ago, remember Kotak Securities offering Smart Routing to NSE & BSE, before Kotak Neo was launched.
NQ having Bull run, BUT smart may wait as well. Twice Top’s rejected..
@vinbhat LRS laws are applicable even for GIFT City based entitites. Derivatives are leveraged products and hence prohibitted. ETFs are equity based products.
Using this can we also invest in non US markets like China, Brazil, South Africa etc also using their MSCI and other brand ETFs? These are available in the search on the Dhan mobile app so is it safe to assume we can buy these also along with the other pure US based ETFs like SP 500, Nasdaq etc?
Also what about the inverse, leveraged & Commodities ETFs of the US market like TQQQ, SQQQ, SCO, UCO etc ?
Hmm
Yes leveraged ETFs are eligible as confirmed officially(Only Bitcoin related ETFs like IBIT/BTCI are restricted). is it showing on your search? Personally I am yet to try it out. https://madefortrade.in/t/introducing-invest-in-us-stocks-etfs-on-dhan/90957/146?u=jaison
Also all country ETFs should be easily possible now, personally not tried it yet but you can try if its showing up on search. Try out Ishares countries ETF list from here
Good morning Dhan Team, Thanks for bringing us investing to retail investors. However for proper swing trading and as us market timing is different, I would like to request to kindly release features llke gtt / forever order for us stocks and etf. Right now there is no trigger based buy or sell feature available. Also kindly add more banks to add funds in it. I hope you will soon release these features. Waiting for a positive response. Thanks.
@MahimaShah how can there be 2 primary Accounts?
After the update to 1.1.4 I added ICICI Bank account and both my added accounts IDFC & ICICI are now showing primary account tag.

You asked for global — and it’s becoming a whole ecosystem.
![]()
Some of you have been asking for this for a long time. @gegobyte first raised US Stocks on Dhan back in 2021. @arun and @Rohitsingh carried it through 2022, and @Amar_Malikaparambil, @hexafrost and @BlackPanther6758 kept it alive right up to launch. And to everyone who’s shared feedback, questions and ideas since US Stocks went live — we’ve read all of it. Thank you. ![]()
Here’s what we want you to know: US Stocks isn’t a one-off feature for us — it’s part of a bigger picture. We’re building an ecosystem where the same clean, transparent, regulated Dhan experience extends across your whole investing journey, from Indian markets to global ones.
And APIs are a big part of that. US Stocks & ETFs are now available on DhanHQ Trading APIs too — so if you’ve ever thought about automating your investing or getting into algo trading, you can now build your own global workflows on top of Dhan. If that’s you, it’s worth a look. ![]()
This is genuinely just the start of global on Dhan. Keep the feedback coming — it’s what shapes what we build next.

Will I get a response to this also???
@RahulDeshpande I believe alot of other users have been asking other stuff too for which there has been no responses. Can we have some reply to it too?
