Why invest in STYC from India
What STYC holds
The PIMCO Short-term High Yield Corporate Bond Index UCITS ETF endeavors to achieve investment results that closely track the total return of the ICE BofAML 0-5 Year US High Yield Constrained Index, prior to the subtraction of its own fees and expenses.
Outside US estate tax
STYC 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
STYC 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 STYC's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
STYC is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Capital gains are taxed in India the same way as on a US-listed ETF.

Paasa's capital-gains statement gives you the figures for your return.
