Frequently asked questions
Can I buy Amapa Minerals stock from India?
Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Amapa Minerals (AMAP) shares directly through Paasa. Amapa Minerals is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, in the Other Precious Metals industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.
How are Amapa Minerals dividends taxed for Indian investors?
Amapa Minerals trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange but is domiciled in Brazil, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Canada. 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 Amapa Minerals shares?
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 CAD/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.
