Why invest in UC86 from India
What UC86 holds
This fund seeks to replicate, prior to expenses, the price and yield performance of the Bloomberg US Liquid Corporates 1-5 Year Total Return Index. It accomplishes this by investing in the constituent bonds of the underlying index, thereby offering exposure to high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated debt securities issued by American corporations across the financial, industrial, and utility sectors.
Outside US estate tax
UC86 is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Hold a dollar asset
UC86 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 UC86's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
UC86 is domiciled in Luxembourg, 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.
