What Are Unlisted Shares ?

Unlisted shares refer to equity of companies that are not listed on stock exchanges. These may include :

They offer an opportunity to invest in businesses at early or transitional stages—often at valuations not yet exposed to public market hype.

Risks Involved

Investing in unlisted shares carries several important risks that must be carefully considered :

  • Liquidity Risk : These shares are not traded on exchanges, making exit options limited and uncertain.
  • Valuation Uncertainty : Prices are often negotiated and may not reflect true market value.
  • Regulatory and Corporate Governance Risk : Less oversight and transparency than listed companies.
  • Business Risk : Early-stage or unlisted companies may be more vulnerable to operational or financial setbacks.
  • Longer Holding Periods : These investments often require patience, with returns realized only after an IPO or private sale, and typically come with a post-IPO lock-in period before shares can be sold.

That’s why we combine in-depth research with personalized advice to ensure that such opportunities are aligned with your financial situation and risk appetite.
