How to invest in CGHY 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.

  3. Step 3

    Search CGHY and buy

    Find the fund by its ticker, CGHY, on NYSE Arca, and place your order. Fractional units are available and there is no minimum trade size, so you can buy by amount.

Why invest in CGHY from India

What CGHY holds

The primary objective of this fund is to deliver a substantial level of current income, with capital appreciation serving as a secondary goal. Its core strategy involves dedicating a minimum of 80% of its total assets to higher-yielding, typically lower-rated debt instruments.

Hold a dollar asset

CGHY 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.

Buy a fraction of a unit

Buy by amount, not by unit, and get the matching fraction of one CGHY unit. There is no minimum trade size.

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.

Planning to hold more than $60,000 in US ETFs? Here's what US estate tax means for you.

US-domiciled ETFs held in your own name fall under US estate tax rules. If your US holdings cross $60,000, the amount above that can be taxed at up to 40% when the account passes to your family.

A UCITS ETF tracking a similar market sits outside US estate tax.

How are CGHY dividends taxed in India?

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

The US does not levy capital gains tax on shares for Indian residents. Gains are taxable in India. Debt-oriented funds can be taxed differently from equity funds, so confirm your rate before selling. The gain is 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.

Can I buy a fraction of one CGHY unit?

Yes. You can buy by amount rather than by unit and add to your position over time. One unit is $24.41, and there is no minimum trade size.

What happens to my CGHY units if I pass away?

US-domiciled ETFs held in your own name fall under US estate tax rules. If your US holdings cross $60,000, the amount above that can be taxed at up to 40% when the account passes to your family. A UCITS ETF tracking a similar market sits outside US estate tax. Paasa's US estate tax calculator shows the exposure for a given portfolio value.
