Why invest in Digital Core REIT from India

What Digital Core REIT does

Digital Core REIT functions as a specialized real estate investment trust (REIT), dedicated to the acquisition, development, ownership, and management of data centers. Its portfolio currently comprises ten crucial data centers, strategically situated throughout the United States and Canada. Digital Core REIT operates in the REIT - Specialty industry within the Real Estate sector.

Hold a dollar asset

Digital Core REIT shares are priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what they're 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.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy Digital Core REIT stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Digital Core REIT (DCRU) shares directly through Paasa. Digital Core REIT is listed on the Singapore Exchange, in the REIT - Specialty industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.

How are Digital Core REIT dividends taxed for Indian investors?

Singapore levies 0% withholding tax on dividends from resident companies. Dividends are taxed at your slab rate in India. Digital Core REIT’s current yield is 7.91%. Paasa's dividend report lists the gross dividend and any tax withheld for each payment, which is what you need when you file.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell Digital Core REIT shares?

Singapore does not levy capital gains tax on the sale of shares, ETFs or REITs. 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 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.

Would my heirs owe estate tax on Digital Core REIT shares?

Singapore imposes no estate or inheritance tax on listed securities. That is the source-country side; the shares themselves pass on like any other asset you hold in your own name.
