How to invest in 2820 from India

  1. Step 1

    Open your Paasa account

    KYC takes a few minutes: PAN, Aadhaar and address proof. Your brokerage account is opened in your own name with Interactive Brokers.

  2. Step 2

    Add funds from your Indian bank account

    Remit up to $250,000 a year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme. Your bank converts the rupees to US dollars at its rate on the day you remit, and Interactive Brokers converts the dollars to HKD when you buy.

  3. Step 3

    Search 2820 and buy

    Find the fund by its ticker, 2820, on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and place your order. Many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy 2820 from India?

Yes. Indian residents can buy Global X China Biotech ETF (2820) through Paasa. It is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and trades in HKD. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme, and the units are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.

What does 2820 invest in?

Global X China Biotech ETF holds 30 securities. Its largest holdings are WUXI BIOLOGICS CAYMAN INC (11.3%), WUXI APPTEC (11.0%) and BEONE MEDICINES-ADR (9.9%). The fund is domiciled in Hong Kong.

What is the expense ratio of 2820?

Global X China Biotech ETF has an expense ratio of 0.68% a year, taken from the fund's assets rather than billed to you. The fund manages about HK$693.6M.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell 2820?

Hong Kong generally does not levy capital gains tax on non-resident individual investors for HKEX-listed stocks. In India, gains on foreign ETF units held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5% without indexation, and gains on units held for 24 months or less are short-term and taxed at your income-tax slab rate. Both are worked out in rupees at the HKD/INR rate on the day you bought and the day you sold, so the currency move is part of the gain. Paasa's capital-gains statement gives you the figures for your return.

Can I buy a single 2820 unit?

Usually more than one, and not a fraction: many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share. At HK$74.72 a unit, size the order by the lot.
