"Very useful platform for me in order to access US stock markets from India, and Nitish and his team make the onboarding process pretty seamless. Their offering of customised stock baskets for the US market is pretty unique - I'm a happy user and wish they grow from strength to strength!"

Deepak Menon
"Craft matters. Paasa's experience is clean, but the real win is the rigor behind it; I needed clarity. Paasa delivered - FEMA guidance I could act on, onboarding that just worked, and portfolios that felt built for diversification of RSUs, not retrofitted. Disclosure: I'm an angel investor in Paasa."

FAQs

How is Paasa different?

We’re a digital-first wealth platform designed for global investing across US, Swiss, UK and Hong Kong exchanges.

Where DIY brokerages stop at access, we go further — offering expert-built strategies, automated rebalancing, and tax optimization.

Can I withdraw anytime?

Yes. Your assets are withdrawable 24×7.

Do you handle the LRS paperwork?

Yes. Paasa provides pre-filled LRS remittance forms (A2, 15CA/CB, etc.) which are collected and submitted to the bank by a runner after you sign.

Can I withdraw to a bank account outside India?

Yes. You can withdraw your funds in any currency to any bank account in your name.

Can I buy UCITS/Irish domiciled ETFs on Paasa?

Yes. Paasa provides access to UCITS ETFs listed in Europe, including those domiciled in Ireland. You can purchase them in whole units or fractions, making it easy to invest any amount you choose.

Can NRIs use Paasa?

Yes. NRIs, along with resident Indians, can invest globally with Paasa. If funds are transferred from an NRE/NRO account in India, a $1 million annual limit applies. If funds are transferred from a bank in the country of residence, there’s no limit unless that country imposes capital controls.

How do taxes work?

We handle taxes for resident Indians.

Short term capital gains are taxed at your marginal income tax rate. Long term capital gains (>2 years) are taxed at 12.5%. Dividends are taxed at your marginal income tax rate.
