Options and Taxation for Indian Investors in US Stocks Explained
Indian investors can access US stocks either directly through brokers like Interactive Brokers or indirectly via funds and platforms such as INDmoney and NSE International Exchange. Dividends from US stocks face a 25% US withholding tax but are fully taxable in India, with foreign tax credit available to avoid double taxation. Investment options vary in control, costs, and regulatory frameworks, including offerings from GIFT City under Indian regulation, providing multiple routes for exposure to American companies.
