Why invest in PUIG from India
What PUIG holds
This Invesco USD IG Corporate Bond ESG Climate Transition UCITS ETF Dist is designed to mirror the total return performance of the Bloomberg MSCI USD Liquid Corporate Climate Transition ESG Bond Index (CTB), herein referred to as the "Reference Index," net of all fees. Income generated by the fund is distributed to investors every quarter.
Outside US estate tax
PUIG 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
PUIG 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 PUIG's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
PUIG is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
