How to invest in Chaoju Eye Care 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, and Interactive Brokers converts the dollars to HKD when you buy.

  3. Step 3

    Search 2219 and buy

    Find Chaoju Eye Care by name or by its ticker, 2219, and place your order. Many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy Chaoju Eye Care stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Chaoju Eye Care (2219) shares directly through Paasa. Chaoju Eye Care is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, in the Medical - Care Facilities 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 Chaoju Eye Care share?

Usually more than one, and not a fraction: many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share. At HK$2.42 a share, size the order by the lot, not by the share.

How are Chaoju Eye Care dividends taxed for Indian investors?

Chaoju Eye Care trades on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange but is domiciled in China, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Hong Kong. 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 Chaoju Eye Care shares?

Hong Kong generally does not levy capital gains tax on non-resident individual investors for HKEX-listed stocks. 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 HKD/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.
