Why invest in GLGG from India
What GLGG holds
The Leverage Shares 2x Long GLXY Daily ETF, identified by the ticker GLGG, is a geared investment vehicle specifically designed for active investors aiming to amplify their exposure to short-term movements in GLXY stock. This "bull" ETF seeks to deliver a daily return equivalent to double (200%) the performance of GLXY's underlying stock, prior to the deduction of any associated fees and operational expenses.
Hold a dollar asset
GLGG 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 GLGG unit. There is no minimum trade size.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell GLGG?
The US does not levy capital gains tax on shares for Indian residents.

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.
