Why invest in TRAU from India

What TRAU holds

The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury Index (the Reference Index) less fees, expenses and transaction costs.

Outside US estate tax

TRAU is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.

Dividends reinvested for you

Dividends from TRAU's holdings are reinvested inside the fund, so nothing is paid out to you and there is no dividend to declare in India.

Hold a dollar asset

TRAU 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 TRAU's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors

TRAU 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.
