SEBI has allowed Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) to trade in more non-agriculture commodity contracts. The move aims to bring more foreign participation, increase trading and strengthen liquidity in India’s commodity market.
But there’s a catch: FPIs must exit their positions before the delivery period begins and cannot take actual delivery of commodities.
SEBI has also expanded the eligibility for recognised investors, including individuals with assets of 5 crore and companies with 20 crore, subject to existing conditions.
