Why invest in BBIL from India
What BBIL holds
This ETF is designed to give investors exposure to the returns generated by short-term U.S. government debt. It specifically invests in fixed-interest securities, denominated in US Dollars, that are issued by the U.S. Treasury and have a remaining maturity period of less than one year.
Outside US estate tax
BBIL is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Dividends reinvested for you
Dividends from BBIL's holdings are reinvested inside the fund, so nothing is paid out to you and there is no dividend to declare in India.
Hold a dollar asset
BBIL is priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what it's worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.
Paasa handles the paperwork
Investing abroad brings paperwork with it: remittance filings, capital gains reporting, foreign asset disclosure. Paasa prepares all of it for you. Your India-ready tax reports arrive at year end, ready to file.
Why BBIL's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
BBIL is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Capital gains are taxed in India the same way as on a US-listed ETF.
