Why invest in CARB from India
What CARB holds
WisdomTree Carbon is a fully collateralized Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC) that meets UCITS standards, offering investors comprehensive total return exposure to Carbon futures contracts. Its primary objective is to mirror the performance of the Solactive Carbon Emission Allowances Rolling Futures Total Return Index (SOLCARBT).
Hold a dollar asset
CARB 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.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell CARB?
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 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.
