SpaceX began trading on Nasdaq at $135 per share. The listing values the company at about $1.75 trillion. This marks one of the largest stock market debuts in history. The listing makes Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire.
Indian retail investors did not receive direct shares in the IPO. US stock sales do not offer direct paths for Indian retail buyers. Investors in India now buy the stock through international investing platforms or via NSE IX in GIFT City.
The company runs space launches, satellite broadband through Starlink, defense work, and artificial intelligence through xAI. It reported $18.67 billion in revenue during 2025 and a loss of $4.94 billion.
Market experts hold mixed views:
Ishan Tanna of Ashika Capital calls SpaceX a unique business with long-term growth opportunities. He notes the $1.75 trillion value shows high expectations for future growth rather than current financial results. He suggests investors buy a small amount as part of a mixed portfolio but warns buying large amounts after a strong debut brings risks tied to the high price.
Niteen Dongare of Anand Rathi International Ventures IFSC says the listing gives Indian investors access to a business with few similar options in global markets. He points to SpaceX's leading role in commercial space launches and satellite connectivity.
Sunny Agrawal of SBI Securities urges caution. He cites the lack of profit and high valuation as factors making the balance of risk and reward poor for new investors.
Some analysts suggest gaining exposure through global technology or space-focused funds instead of buying single stocks.
