How to invest in Sands China from India
Step 1
Open your Paasa account
KYC takes a few minutes: PAN, Aadhaar and address proof. Your brokerage account is opened in your own name with Interactive Brokers.
Step 2
Add funds from your Indian bank account
Remit up to $250,000 a year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme. Your bank converts the rupees to US dollars at its rate on the day you remit, and Interactive Brokers converts the dollars to HKD when you buy.
Step 3
Search 1928 and buy
Find Sands China by name or by its ticker, 1928, and place your order. Many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share.
Why invest in Sands China from India
What Sands China does

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy Sands China stock from India?
Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Sands China (1928) shares directly through Paasa. Sands China is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, in the Gambling, Resorts & Casinos industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.
Do I need to buy a full Sands China share?
Usually more than one, and not a fraction: many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share. At HK$11.85 a share, size the order by the lot, not by the share.
How are Sands China dividends taxed for Indian investors?
Sands China trades on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange but is domiciled in Macao SAR China, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Hong Kong. Dividends are taxed at your slab rate in India. Paasa's dividend report shows the gross amount and any tax withheld for each payment.
What tax do I pay in India when I sell Sands China shares?
Hong Kong generally does not levy capital gains tax on non-resident individual investors for HKEX-listed stocks. In India, gains on shares held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5%, and gains on shares 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 HKD/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.
