NSE Warns Against Unlisted Company Investments
A senior official from the National Stock Exchange (NSE) named Krishnan Iyer gave a talk in Bhopal.
He warned people about the dangers of buying shares in companies that aren't listed on big stock markets like NSE or BSE.
These unlisted companies, often start-ups, are risky because their prices aren't based on real performance but on what people think.
There are no rules to protect investors, and middlemen only care about making money.
The NSE has a team to watch for cheating in the market and reports it to the regulator, SEBI.
Iyer also talked about how changes in global oil prices can affect all parts of the economy.
He advised people to be careful, especially when they see promises of high returns on social media, as these might be scams.
NSE official Krishnan Iyer warns retail investors about the risks of trading in unlisted companies.
Unlisted companies' market lacks transparency and regulation, with prices determined by perception.
NSE has a surveillance team to monitor and report market manipulation to SEBI.
Shady outfits use social media to promise high returns, and NSE uses algorithms to identify and remove their ads.
Global crude oil price fluctuations can impact all sectors of the economy due to the essential nature of oil.
