Investing in the world's fastest growing economy has never been easier!

Remembering Dr. Manmohan Singh: Architect of India's Economic Renaissance. Today, we pause to honour the extraordinary life and legacy of Dr. Manmohan Singh, a visionary economist, statesman, and former Prime Minister of India, whose contributions have shaped modern India. Dr. Singh's pivotal role in the 1992 Liberalisation, Privatisation, and Globalisation (LPG) reforms marked a watershed moment in Indian history. As Finance Minister, he courageously opened India's doors to the world, rescuing the nation from a financial crisis and setting it on a path of unprecedented economic growth. His leadership laid the foundation for the dynamic, entrepreneurial, and globally integrated India we know today. As Prime Minister, Dr. Singh steered India through the 21st century with remarkable poise. Under his guidance, India navigated global economic crises, expanded its social welfare net, and emerged as a critical player on the international stage. Landmark initiatives like the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), the Right to Information Act, and significant strides in energy and infrastructure reflect his quiet but transformative leadership. Dr. Singh’s work remains an inspiration for Indus and countless others. His vision of an inclusive and prosperous India continues to drive our mission of unlocking India's growth for all. Rest in peace, Dr. Manmohan Singh. Your legacy will endure.

📊 2024 Emerging Markets Review: India Tops by a LOT 🇮🇳 According to CNBC, India has outpaced every other emerging market this year, establishing itself as the global leader in growth and innovation. With a 7% GDP growth rate, one of the highest globally, India is setting a new benchmark for what’s possible in emerging economies. What sets India apart? Its massive population, young demographic, and transformative policies like the Aadhaar biometric ID system have created an ecosystem ripe for growth. This digital infrastructure is driving financial inclusion, enabling over 800 million new bank accounts, and connecting billions to the economy through affordable smartphones and internet access.

Diwali : India's festival of lights but also a fascinating economic indicator 🇮🇳✨🪔 We took a deep dive to uncover what Diwali '24 reveals about India's rapidly rising consumption patterns: Record-Breaking Festive Sales 🛍️: Online sales during the Diwali season are expected to reach ₹120,000 crore (approx. US$14.5 billion) this year, marking a whopping 26% growth from last year. Job Creation and Lower Unemployment 👩💼: Ahead of Diwali 2024, the unemployment rate reached a four-year low due to a rise in new job openings, underscoring the contributions of the world's youngest working population. Economic Growth Alignment 📈: The festive demand complements the World Bank’s revised forecast of 7.5% GDP growth for India in 2024, reinforcing the country’s position as the worlds fastest-growing economy. Supply Chain and Logistics Surge 🚚: Diwali’s ripple effects reach the supply chain, with increased demand for logistics and transportation. As billions of homes light up this Diwali, it seems like the Indian Economy is on track to do the same!

We had an incredible time at the Annual Diwali event at the CBD, meeting people from Auckland’s vibrant Indian community! While the event was full of excitement and energy, what we learned at our (guerilla-style 😄) booth was even more amazing: a) Indians invest through family accounts: Some Indians we spoke to use their family’s existing bank accounts in India to invest and have workaround processes in place currently. We discussed Indus's FX rate of just 1%, compared to the 2-2.5% they currently pay through their banks. This really hit home when we showed them the long-term compounding benefits of lower fees. b) Exemption from capital gains tax: Many Indians weren’t aware they are exempt from the 12% capital gains tax on mutual funds due to the double tax avoidance agreement (DTAA) between New Zealand and India. In fact, 9 out of 10 people we spoke to had no idea! We were thrilled to explain that Indus automatically handles this on the backend, sparing them the headache of complicated government paperwork. c) Non-Indians perspective: Non-Indians had a solid understanding of India’s growth story. The common themes were India’s booming middle class, its space program, and the thriving startup ecosystem. They were of course most keen in the Indian markets incredible returns :) The two days were filled with incredible energy and valuable insights for our team. Adding 150 new people to our waitlist ahead of our official launch in two weeks was the cherry on top!

We’re excited to see bilateral relations between these two great nations go to new heights! 💪🏽🇳🇿🇮🇳
