Bitget Lists 10 Indian and 2 US Stock Futures

Bitget listed 12 USDT-settled perpetual futures contracts tied to Indian and U.S. equities, comprising 10 Indian stocks and 2 U.S. stocks, with up to 20x leverage and 24/7 trading. The Indian contracts cover names including Reliance Industries ($RELIANCE), HDFC Bank ($HDFCBANK), Tata Consultancy Services ($TCS), ICICI Bank, State Bank of India, Infosys, Bharti Airtel and ITC, while the U.S. contracts track Morgan Stanley ($MS) and Kimberly-Clark ($KMB). The move extends Bitget's derivatives lineup beyond crypto into tokenized equity exposure, letting traders speculate on major Indian and U.S. companies around the clock in Tether. The listings tap growing demand for 24/7 access to equity markets, particularly Indian stocks that trade on domestic exchanges with limited hours. What to watch next is whether trading volumes and open interest in these equity-linked contracts justify further listings and whether rival exchanges follow with similar stock perpetuals.
