What is the GIFT Nifty?
GIFT Nifty is one of India’s stock markets that lets international investors bet on India’s Nifty 50 index, but instead of being traded in Singapore like before (as SGX Nifty), it now happens in India at GIFT City in Gujarat.
This change was made to bring more business to India and make GIFT City a global financial hub. GIFT Nifty runs almost 21 hours a day, making it easy for people in different time zones to trade. It's mainly for foreign investors and NRIs, not regular Indian citizens.
