29 March 2018 I am a software engg. And working for a danish client from last 8 years so i have all the knowledge about the product. Now he talked to board of directors there and is offering me 1% share in his company at discounted price so that i continue working with him. I am not his direct employee but works in a indian consultancy company which has agreement and work for him. Can i have share in foreign company without being its employee?
