Why invest in MOBI from India

What MOBI holds

The Amundi MSCI Smart Mobility UCITS ETF Acc seeks to accurately replicate the performance of the MSCI ACWI IMI Future Mobility Filtered Index, aligning with its movements whether ascending or descending. A central goal of this fund is to keep the discrepancy, or tracking error, between its net asset value and the index's returns as minimal as possible.

Outside US estate tax

MOBI is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.

Dividends reinvested for you

Dividends from MOBI's holdings are reinvested inside the fund, so nothing is paid out to you and there is no dividend to declare in India.

Hold a dollar asset

MOBI 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 MOBI's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors

MOBI is domiciled in Luxembourg, 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.

What is the expense ratio of MOBI?

Amundi MSCI Smart Mobility UCITS ETF has an expense ratio of 0.45% a year, taken from the fund's assets rather than billed to you. The fund manages about $180.2M.

Is MOBI a UCITS ETF, and why does that matter for Indian investors?

Yes. Amundi MSCI Smart Mobility UCITS ETF is a UCITS fund domiciled in Luxembourg. Because it is domiciled outside the US, it is not a US-situs asset, so US estate tax does not apply to it.

Does MOBI pay dividends?

What tax do I pay in India when I sell MOBI?

In India, gains on foreign ETF units held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5% without indexation, and gains on units 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.
