Why invest in Air Water Ventures from India

What Air Water Ventures does

Air Water Ventures Ltd. engages in the provision of drinking water. It also manufactures and sells atmospheric water generators. Air Water Ventures operates in the Beverages - Non-Alcoholic industry within the Consumer Defensive sector.

Hold a dollar asset

Air Water Ventures shares are priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what they're worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.

Buy a fraction of a share

Buy by amount, not by share, and get the matching fraction of one Air Water Ventures share. There is no minimum trade size.

Paasa handles the paperwork

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy Air Water Ventures stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Air Water Ventures (WATR) shares directly through Paasa. Air Water Ventures is listed on NASDAQ, in the Beverages - Non-Alcoholic industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.

Do I need to buy a full Air Water Ventures share?

No. You can buy part of one Air Water Ventures share and add to your position over time. One share is $1.71, and you can buy whole shares or any fraction; there is no minimum trade size.

How are Air Water Ventures dividends taxed for Indian investors?

Air Water Ventures trades on NASDAQ but is domiciled in United Arab Emirates, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of the US. Some non-US companies list in the US through American Depositary Receipts, which can carry dividend withholding at the company's home-country rate. Dividends are taxed at your slab rate in India. Paasa's dividend report shows the gross amount and any tax withheld for each payment.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell Air Water Ventures shares?

The US does not levy capital gains tax on shares for Indian residents. In India, gains on shares held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5%, and gains on shares 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 USD/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.
