No — Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Swap UCITS ETF 1C (XMCM) is an accumulating share class, so dividends received from its holdings are reinvested inside the fund instead of being paid out. You realise that income as capital growth when you sell, which in many jurisdictions defers the tax event rather than triggering one each distribution.
Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Swap UCITS ETF 1C (XMCM) is domiciled in Ireland (IE). A Ireland-domiciled UCITS fund receives US dividends at a 15% treaty withholding rate inside the fund, versus the 30% statutory rate on dividends paid directly to a non-resident (generally 25% for an Indian resident under the India-US treaty with a valid W-8BEN). The fund-level 15% is deducted before NAV and is not reclaimable by you. Its shares also sit outside US estate tax, which applies to US-situs assets above $60,000 for non-resident aliens.
Xtrackers MSCI Emerging Markets Swap UCITS ETF 1C (XMCM) tracks the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (via swap). Any fund tracking the same index gives you materially the same exposure, so cost, size and share class are usually what separate the alternatives, not the strategy.
Over the measured window XMCM showed annualised volatility of about 38.7% and a worst peak-to-trough fall of 11.9%. Volatility describes the size of a typical swing; the drawdown is what actually happened at the worst moment, and it is the number worth checking you could have held through.
