Why invest in LQDH from India
What LQDH holds
The primary objective of this Fund is to mirror the performance of a benchmark index. This index is composed of high-quality corporate debt instruments issued in US Dollars.
Outside US estate tax
LQDH 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
LQDH 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 LQDH's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
