FAQs – Buying Unlisted Shares

What are unlisted shares?+

Unlisted shares are stocks of companies that are not listed on any stock exchange like NSE or BSE. They are traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market through dealers, brokers, and private transactions.

How is the price of an unlisted share decided?+

Unlike listed shares, there’s no central marketplace or live order book. Prices are based on demand and supply, dealer quotes, and recent transaction trends. This leads to price fragmentation — different dealers can quote very different prices for the same stock.

Why should I compare prices before buying?+

Because the same share can be available at a 5–20% price difference depending on the dealer. Not comparing means you could be paying a premium for no reason — directly impacting your returns.

Is buying unlisted shares risky?+

Yes, like any investment, unlisted shares carry risks — including liquidity risk (harder to sell), company performance risk, and price transparency issues. Comparing prices helps reduce one avoidable risk — overpaying.

How can I know if the price I’m getting is fair?+

You can check recent transaction prices, ask multiple dealers, and soon — use our price comparison platform to instantly see live market quotes.

What documents are required to buy unlisted shares?+

Typically: PAN Card Demat Account details KYC documents (address proof, ID proof)

How do I sell unlisted shares?+

You can sell them via a dealer, private buyer, or once the company gets listed on a stock exchange. Having access to multiple dealer quotes helps you get the best selling price.

Can dealers lose business if they don’t offer the best price?+

Absolutely. If an investor finds a better price elsewhere, they’ll switch — often for good. That’s why transparent pricing protects both investors and dealers.

How soon will I receive the shares after purchase?+

Usually within T+2 to T+7 days after payment and documentation, depending on the dealer and the company’s transfer process.

Do I need to be an accredited investor to buy unlisted shares?+

No, but you must meet the regulatory requirements under SEBI guidelines and have a valid Demat account.
