FAQs
Can Indian residents buy IDT International stock?
Yes. IDT International (167) has been listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since 1988, in the Consumer Electronics industry, and Indian residents can buy it through Paasa. You fund the account from your Indian bank under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme and the money is converted to US dollars and then to HKD. Shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers, segregated from Paasa's own assets.
How much does one IDT International share cost in rupees?
One IDT International share is HK$6.50 — about ₹80 at an HKD/INR rate of 12.23 on 25 Sep 2026. Both the IDT International price and the rupee rate move during the day, so the rupee cost changes with them.
What are the LRS and TCS rules for buying IDT International from India?
Remit up to $250,000 per financial year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS). Banks collect 20% tax at source on LRS remittances above ₹10 lakh in a financial year; the TCS is adjustable against your income-tax liability. FX and the LRS declaration are handled by your bank when you fund your account.
What is the minimum I can buy of IDT International?
Many Hong Kong listings trade in board lots, so the smallest order is one lot rather than one share.
How are gains on IDT International shares taxed in India?
Hong Kong generally does not levy capital gains tax on non-resident individual investors for HKEX-listed stocks, so the tax is an India-side one. Gains on shares held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5%. Gains on shares held for 24 months or less are short-term and taxed at your income-tax slab rate. The gain is computed in rupees using the HKD/INR rate on the purchase and the sale date, so the rupee move counts alongside the IDT International price. Paasa issues a capital-gains statement for your return.
Does IDT International pay a dividend?
No. IDT International does not currently pay a dividend, so holding it produces no dividend income to declare in India. If it starts paying one, the Indian treatment is the usual one — dividends are taxed at your slab rate in India — and Paasa's dividend report would show the gross amount and any tax withheld.
When can I trade IDT International from India?
The Hong Kong Stock Exchange trades 7:00 am – 1:30 pm IST in Indian time. It also halts for lunch, 9:30 am – 10:30 am IST. Orders can only execute during that window.
Is there estate or inheritance tax on IDT International shares held from India?
Hong Kong has no estate duty.
Do I have to declare IDT International shares in my Indian tax return?
Yes. Foreign shares held on 31 March must be reported in Schedule FA of your Indian income-tax return. Paasa gives you a Schedule FA-ready statement listing your IDT International holding, its cost and its closing value.
How do I sell IDT International and bring the money back to India?
You sell during market hours (7:00 am – 1:30 pm IST) and the proceeds settle in HKD in your Paasa account. From there you can hold the balance, reinvest, or repatriate. Funds can be withdrawn in any currency to any bank account in your own name. Whether the sale is short- or long-term is decided by the 24-month holding period.
