Is Compagnie de Saint-Gobain a Germany company, and does that change how it is taxed?

Funds can be withdrawn in any currency to any bank account in your own name.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.
Does the rupee rate affect what I make on Compagnie de Saint-Gobain?
Yes. Compagnie de Saint-Gobain is priced in EUR, so your rupee outcome combines the EUR move with the EUR/INR move between the day you remit and the day you convert back. Both directions are reflected in the capital-gains statement Paasa issues.
