Our read on INDA
AThe default India trade for US investors: one big, heavily traded fund holding roughly 160 mostly larger Indian companies, running since 2012. Priced below the typical India fund, though it is not the category's price leader.
The fund seeks to track an index composed of Indian equities, providing targeted exposure to India.
Why people hold it
- Charges 0.61% a year against a 0.75% median for US-listed India funds, so the access fee sits below the category's going rate.
- A multi-billion-dollar fund and among the most actively traded in its category, so getting in or out rarely means fighting a thin order book.
- Tracks the MSCI India Index with no side bets, and rates as one of the strongest implementations among US-listed India funds. Live since 2012.
Worth knowing
- FLIN runs a broad India index for 0.19%. Here you pay up for the deeper trading and the longer live record.
- One country, one currency. Rupee moves land in your return alongside Indian share prices.
- Roughly 160 holdings skewed to India's bigger listed names; the small-cap tier sits in a separate fund (SMIN).
