Why invest in XUHY from India
What XUHY holds
This ETF aims to replicate the returns of the Bloomberg US HY Very Liquid Index ex 144A (GTR, USD). It focuses on US dollar-denominated, high-yield, fixed-income securities rated Ba1/BB+/BB+ or below (sub-investment grade).
Outside US estate tax
XUHY is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Hold a dollar asset
XUHY 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 XUHY's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
XUHY 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.
