Why invest in TAXE from India

What TAXE holds

The fund's core objective is to deliver the most substantial income possible, which is exempt from federal income taxes, while simultaneously aiming for a controlled level of price volatility.

Hold a dollar asset

TAXE 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.

Buy a fraction of a unit

Buy by amount, not by unit, and get the matching fraction of one TAXE unit. There is no minimum trade size.

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.

Planning to hold more than $60,000 in US ETFs? Here's what US estate tax means for you.

A UCITS ETF tracking a similar market sits outside US estate tax.
