Why invest in SMJ International from India
What SMJ International does
SMJ International Holdings Inc. is a premier, Singapore-headquartered specialist in flooring solutions. The company distributes a comprehensive range of floor coverings, encompassing carpet tiles, broadloom carpets, and vinyl tiles, all under its exclusive SMJ brand. SMJ International operates in the Manufacturing - Textiles industry within the Industrials sector.
Hold a dollar asset
SMJ International shares are priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what they're worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.
Buy a fraction of a share
Buy by amount, not by share, and get the matching fraction of one SMJ International share. There is no minimum trade size.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy SMJ International stock from India?
Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy SMJ International (SMJF) shares directly through Paasa. SMJ International is listed on NYSE American, in the Manufacturing - Textiles 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 SMJ International share?
No. You can buy part of one SMJ International share and add to your position over time. One share is $1.60, and you can buy whole shares or any fraction; there is no minimum trade size.
How are SMJ International dividends taxed for Indian investors?
SMJ International trades on NYSE American but is domiciled in Singapore, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of the US. Some non-US companies list in the US through American Depositary Receipts, which can carry dividend withholding at the company's home-country rate. 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 SMJ International shares?
The US does not levy capital gains tax on shares for Indian residents. 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 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.
