Why invest in IB01 from India
What IB01 holds
This iShares UCITS ETF is structured to replicate the performance of an underlying index. This index consists of very short-term government bonds, issued by the US Treasury, denominated in US Dollars, and possessing a maximum maturity period of one year.
Outside US estate tax
IB01 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
IB01 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 IB01's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
IB01 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.
