Why invest in DJMC from India
What DJMC holds
The fund's objective is to mirror the financial performance of an index that represents mid-sized companies operating across the Eurozone.
Outside US estate tax
DJMC is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
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.
Why DJMC's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
DJMC is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
On the US shares the fund holds, the 15% US dividend withholding is paid inside the fund, and you cannot claim it as a Foreign Tax Credit in India.
Capital gains are taxed in India the same way as on a US-listed ETF.

Is DJMC a UCITS ETF, and why does that matter for Indian investors?
Yes. iShares EURO STOXX Mid UCITS ETF is a UCITS fund domiciled in Ireland. Because it is domiciled outside the US, it is not a US-situs asset, so US estate tax does not apply to it.

How are DJMC dividends taxed in India?

What tax do I pay in India when I sell DJMC?
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 GBP/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.
