A Resident individual is allowed to make investment upto $75,000 without the prior approval of Reserve Bank of India. You can check RBI Liberalised Remittance Scheme
Dividend income would be taxable in India, it would be added to total income and taxed as per normal slab rates. In case tax is already deducted on such dividend in foreign country, deduction for same can be taken under Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA).
