Why invest in WTID from India
What WTID holds
This Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC) offers investors comprehensive exposure to WTI Crude Oil futures contracts, being fully collateralized and compliant with UCITS regulations. The product's total return is determined by the daily performance of the Bloomberg WTI Crude Oil Sub Index (BCOMCL), supplemented by interest income, and adjusted for all applicable fees and operational costs.
Hold a dollar asset
WTID 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.

What tax do I pay in India when I sell WTID?
In India, gains on foreign ETF units held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5% without indexation, and gains on units 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 USD/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.
