Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

INDYAiShares India 50 ETF

INQQFThe India Internet ETF

In short

INDY India's headline index in a US wrapper. INDY tracks the Nifty 50, the National Stock Exchange benchmark quoted across Indian markets, holding about 50 of the country's largest listed companies and skipping the small-cap tail.

INQQ Most e-commerce ETFs are Amazon-and-friends with a sprinkle of the world. INQQ goes the other way: a concentrated basket of Indian internet and online-commerce companies, and nothing else.

Stated mandate

INDY The fund seeks to track the Nifty 50 Index, which represents 50 leading Indian companies, using an indexing approach rather than active security selection.

INQQ The fund seeks to track an index representing an investable universe of publicly traded Indian internet and ecommerce companies.

Why people hold it

  • INDY The Nifty 50 is the NSE's flagship index: 50 stocks spanning 13 sectors, used across India for benchmarking, derivatives and index funds. In its US peer group, INDY is the fund built on it.nseindia.com
  • 0.65% a year, below the 0.75% median for US single-country India funds.
  • Straight indexing, no stock picking, and the fund has stayed very close to its benchmark. One of the tighter implementations among US India funds.ishares.com
  • Trading since 2009 under the iShares roof, which makes it one of the longer-running US ways to own Indian large caps.ishares.com
  • INQQ Single-country focus. The index covers publicly traded Indian internet and ecommerce companies, a mandate its peers in the e-commerce cohort (EBIZ, IBUY, ONLN) don't offer.
  • Plain plumbing: an index-tracking 1940 Act equity fund that owns the stocks. No swaps, no leverage, no derivatives overlay to unpack.
  • Deliberately tight. A couple dozen names means the leading Indian internet businesses drive returns instead of being diluted by a 200-stock tail.
  • From EMQQ Global, a boutique issuer built around emerging-market internet indexing, which launched INQQ in 2022 to isolate India.

Worth knowing

  • INDY About 50 names means the biggest Indian megacaps carry real weight here. Concentration is the design, not a bug, but it shows up in the ride.
  • Cheaper India exposure exists: FLIN charges 0.19%, and INDA, also large-cap focused, comes in a touch under INDY.
  • One country, one currency, one policy cycle. A single-market emerging equity fund moves harder than a global index fund, and INDY's swings run above its peer group's typical level.ishares.com
  • INQQ The specialty carries a specialty price: 0.86% a year, above broader e-commerce options like OGIG (0.48%) and EBIZ (0.50%).
  • Small and thinly traded, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than in the large global e-commerce funds.
  • One country, one theme, a couple dozen stocks. Indian market swings, currency moves and local regulation land here undiluted.
