GIFT City: India's Gateway to Global Markets

GIFT City (Gujarat International Finance Tec-City) is India's first International Financial Services Centre (IFSC). It operates as an offshore jurisdiction within India, allowing investors to participate in global markets using foreign currency (USD) while enjoying unparalleled tax benefits.

• Tax-Neutral Relocation: As of April 2026, offshore funds (from Singapore/Mauritius) can relocate to GIFT City without attracting capital gains tax.
• The 20-Year Advantage: Budget 2026 doubled the tax holiday; entities now enjoy a 100% income tax exemption for 20 consecutive years.
• Zero Transaction Costs: No Securities Transaction Tax (STT), Commodity Transaction Tax (CTT), or Stamp Duty on IFSC transactions.
• For NRIs & Global Investors: Offers a "dual-hub" strategy to diversify capital away from volatile global regions into India's stable, high-growth environment.
