Should Indian investors look to get a bite of Elon Musk-led SpaceX? Set to be listed on Nasdaq on Friday, SpaceX which is making Musk the world\u2019s first trillionaire, saw the largest ever initial public offering (IPO). The listing has attracted overwhelming interest from investors across the world. SpaceX has diverse businesses, including space launches, satellite broadband services, defence-related operations and artificial intelligence.For investors in India, participating in the IPO was not a straightforward option. Unlike domestic public offerings, US IPOs do not offer a direct allocation route for Indian retail investors. As a result, those looking to invest can now only access the stock after its market debut through international investing platforms or via NSE IX in GIFT City. <\/p>\n

At the IPO price of $135 a share, SpaceX commands a market valuation of around $1.75 trillion, placing it among the most valuable publicly traded companies globally despite not yet turning profitable.Also Read | Elon Musk’s SpaceX raises $75 billion in record IPO debut: 10 things to know<\/a>A key debate among investors is whether the stock is worth buying immediately after listing.<\/p>\n

Should Indian investors bet on SpaceX stock?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

For investors seeking international diversification, the appeal is clear. SpaceX has established leadership in commercial launch services and satellite connectivity through Starlink. In addition, its xAI venture provides exposure to the rapidly expanding artificial intelligence space, making the company one of the few publicly traded businesses with a footprint across several high-growth industries.But market experts are split on the issue. Some view SpaceX as a rare long-term opportunity, given its presence in sectors where listed investment options remain limited. Others argue that expectations have become excessively optimistic. <\/p>\n

The company generated revenue of $18.67 billion in 2025 while reporting a net loss of $4.94 billion.Ishan Tanna, Senior Associate at Ashika Capital told ET that SpaceX is a distinctive business backed by cutting-edge technology and several long-term growth opportunities. At the same time, he noted that the market valuation already reflects extremely high expectations about the company’s future.According to Tanna, a valuation of $1.75 trillion suggests that investors are placing greater emphasis on the company’s ability to deliver future growth than on its current financial performance. While he believes the stock could have a place as a limited diversification bet within a portfolio, he warned that aggressively buying after a highly enthusiastic market debut may expose investors to considerable valuation-related risks.Niteen Dongare, Director and CEO of Anand Rathi International Ventures IFSC, said the listing gives Indian investors access to a business model that has few comparable alternatives in global equity markets.Also Read | Could Elon Musk become the world\u2019s first trillionaire?<\/a>He pointed out that SpaceX occupies a dominant position in commercial space launches and satellite connectivity through Starlink, offering investors exposure to industries that extend well beyond the traditional technology sector.However, not everyone is convinced that SpaceX offers an attractive entry point at current valuations. Sunny Agrawal, Head of Fundamental Research at SBI Securities, is among those urging caution and believes investors should refrain from buying the stock after its market debut.Agrawal argued that the company’s lack of profitability, combined with what he described as an extremely stretched valuation, makes the risk-reward equation unfavourable for new investors. <\/p>\n

A key concern is the extent to which future growth expectations have already been built into the stock price. Some analysts suggest getting exposure through global technology or space-focused funds that may eventually hold SpaceX, thereby reducing the risks associated with owning a single stock.For Indian investors, that may be the most practical conclusion.
