Frequently asked questions
Can I buy Vital Metals stock from India?
Yes. Indian residents and NRIs can buy Vital Metals (VJF) shares directly through Paasa. Vital Metals is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, in the Industrial Materials industry. Your money leaves India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers.
How are Vital Metals dividends taxed for Indian investors?
Vital Metals trades on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange but is domiciled in Australia, so any withholding on its dividends follows that country's rules rather than those of Germany. Dividends are taxed at your slab rate in India. Paasa's dividend report shows the gross amount and any tax withheld for each payment.
What tax do I pay in India when I sell Vital Metals shares?
In India, gains on shares held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5%, and gains on shares held for 24 months or less are short-term and taxed at your income-tax slab rate. Both are worked out in rupees at the EUR/INR rate on the day you bought and the day you sold, so the currency move is part of the gain. Paasa's capital-gains statement gives you the figures for your return.
