Why invest in USIC from India
What USIC holds
This Amundi ETF aims to closely track the performance of the Bloomberg MSCI USD Corporate PAB Green Tilted Index, striving for accurate replication regardless of market fluctuations. A secondary objective is to minimize the discrepancy between the sub-fund's net asset value and the index's returns.
Outside US estate tax
USIC is domiciled in Luxembourg, 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 USIC'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
USIC 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 USIC's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
USIC 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.

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