Why invest in GLUH from India
What GLUH holds
The primary goal of this fund is to mirror the performance of an index composed exclusively of government bonds issued by the UK, with all such bonds denominated in Sterling.
Outside US estate tax
GLUH is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Hold a dollar asset
GLUH 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.
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 GLUH's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
GLUH is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Capital gains are taxed in India the same way as on a US-listed ETF.
