FAQs
Can Indian residents buy Check Point Software Technologies stock?
Yes. Check Point Software Technologies (CHKP) has been listed on NASDAQ since 1996, in the Software - Infrastructure 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. Shares are held in your own name at Interactive Brokers LLC and are SIPC-insured up to $500,000 in total, including $250,000 for cash.
How much does one Check Point Software Technologies share cost in rupees?
One Check Point Software Technologies share is $127.22 — about ₹12,222 at a USD/INR rate of 96.07 on 28 Sep 2026. Both the Check Point Software Technologies 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 Check Point Software Technologies 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.
Can I buy Check Point Software Technologies with less than the price of one share?
Yes. A whole Check Point Software Technologies share is $127.22, but there is no minimum trade size: you enter a rupee or dollar amount and receive the matching fraction.
How are gains on Check Point Software Technologies shares taxed in India?
The US does not levy capital gains tax on shares for Indian residents, 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 USD/INR rate on the purchase and the sale date, so the rupee move counts alongside the Check Point Software Technologies price. Paasa issues a capital-gains statement for your return.
Does Check Point Software Technologies pay a dividend?
No. Check Point Software Technologies 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 Check Point Software Technologies from India?
NASDAQ trades 7:00 pm – 1:30 am IST in Indian time, so the close lands after midnight. The window shifts to 8:00 pm – 2:30 am IST when the US is on standard time. Orders can only execute during that window.
Is Check Point Software Technologies a United States company, and does that change how it is taxed?
Check Point Software Technologies trades on NASDAQ in US dollars, but the company is domiciled in Israel. Check Point Software Technologies trades as an ordinary share listed directly in the US, not a depositary receipt. Some non-US companies list in the US through American Depositary Receipts, which can carry dividend withholding at the company's home-country rate. Your India-side capital-gains treatment is the same either way.
Do I have to declare Check Point Software Technologies 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 Check Point Software Technologies holding, its cost and its closing value.
How do I sell Check Point Software Technologies and bring the money back to India?
You sell during market hours (7:00 pm – 1:30 am IST) and the proceeds settle in USD 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.
