Why invest in Hongkong Land from India

What Hongkong Land does

Hongkong Land Holdings Limited, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the investment, development, and management of properties in Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, Southeast Asia, and internationally. It operates through two segments: Prime Properties Investment and Build-to-Sell. Hongkong Land operates in the Real Estate - Development industry within the Real Estate sector.

Hold a dollar asset

Hongkong Land 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 Hongkong Land stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Hongkong Land (H78) shares directly through Paasa. Hongkong Land is listed on the Singapore Exchange, in the Real Estate - Development 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 Hongkong Land dividends taxed for Indian investors?

Hongkong Land trades on the Singapore Exchange but is domiciled in Bermuda, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Singapore. 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 Hongkong Land 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.
