How to invest in SBO from India

  1. 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.

  2. 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 EUR when you buy.

  3. Step 3

    Search SLL and buy

    Find SBO by name or by its ticker, SLL, and place your order.

Why invest in SBO from India

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy SBO stock from India?

Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy SBO (SLL) shares directly through Paasa. SBO is listed on XETRA, in the Oil & Gas Equipment & Services industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.

How are SBO dividends taxed for Indian investors?

SBO trades on XETRA but is domiciled in Austria, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Germany. 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 SBO shares?

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 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.
