How to invest in China Hongqiao 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 1378 and buy

    Find China Hongqiao by name or by its ticker, 1378, and place your order. Many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share.

Why invest in China Hongqiao from India

What China Hongqiao does

China Hongqiao Group Limited, an investment holding entity, primarily manufactures and distributes aluminum products across the People's Republic of China and Indonesia. Its diverse product range includes molten aluminum alloys, aluminum alloy ingots, aluminum busbars, general aluminum alloy processing, and various alumina products. China Hongqiao operates in the Aluminum industry within the Basic Materials sector.

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.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy China Hongqiao stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy China Hongqiao (1378) shares directly through Paasa. China Hongqiao is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, in the Aluminum 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 China Hongqiao 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$21.42 a share, size the order by the lot, not by the share.

How are China Hongqiao dividends taxed for Indian investors?

China Hongqiao 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 China Hongqiao 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.
