Why invest in SADM from India
What SADM holds
The Amundi MSCI Emerging Markets ESG Selection - UCITS ETF DR endeavors to meticulously mirror the investment performance of the MSCI EM ESG Selection P-Series 5% Issuer Capped Index. Its primary objective is to replicate the Index's returns as precisely as possible, irrespective of market trends, while also working to significantly minimize any divergence between the fund's net asset value and the Index's performance.
Outside US estate tax
SADM is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
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 SADM's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
SADM is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.

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

Both are worked out in rupees at the EUR/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.
