Is it possible for retail investors and HNI to invest in other marketing like China, US or anywhere else?

I wanted to understand if it is possible for retail investors and HNI to invest in other country markets like china and US ?

possible but why we should invest in other countries when we are in a biggest bull market in India…

Just for diversification

You can invest in US markets though their funds/etf such as
Motilal oswal nasdaq 100
Mirae asset has s&p500 top 50
Mirae asset faang

All of the above are US based funds/etf

I suppose this is 7Lakhs per year under LRS ? And the $250000 is via the GIFT city right?

No, it has nothing to do with Gift city. LRS scheme is by RBI, any transaction that you do in foreign currency that will come under LRS, with some restrictions, like no margin trading, no FNO, and no lottery tickets etc etc.
