While Bonds are securities that are mostly issued by the government, debentures are always issued by corporations.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonds and Debentures are issued by these entities to raise money from investors as loans used to fulfill business objectives like entering new markets, starting a new project, or scaling existing businesses. For every bond\/debenture issue, fixed interest payments (Coupons) are made regularly on pre-specified dates. The principal loan amount(face value per unit of Bond\/ Debenture) is paid back on the pre-specified maturity date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why should I invest in Bonds?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonds can be an attractive investment option for investors seeking stable income and portfolio diversification.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few potential benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most bonds offer fixed coupon payouts at regular intervals.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the issuer and credit rating, certain bonds may offer higher yields compared to traditional savings instruments like Fixed Deposits.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonds can help balance your portfolio by adding relatively stable income-generating instruments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonds are available across different credit ratings, from AAA-rated (relatively safer) to lower-rated high-yield bonds, allowing investors to choose based on their risk appetite<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Why should I choose bonds over fixed deposits?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both bonds and fixed deposits (FDs) are considered relatively safer investment options, but they differ in terms of returns, liquidity, and tax treatment.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few points to consider:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain bonds may offer higher coupon rates than traditional FDs, depending on the issuer, credit rating, and tenure.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many listed bonds can be traded in the secondary market, giving you an opportunity to exit before maturity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While interest on most bonds is taxable (like FDs), certain notified bonds such as Section 54EC Capital Gains Bonds and tax-free PSU bonds may offer specific tax benefits under prevailing income tax laws.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disclaimer: Bonds carry varying degrees of credit and market risk depending on the issuer and rating.

At this time, the investor wants to sell the bonds he\/she has to sell at a discount price. However, the flip side is that, if the interest rates in the economy decrease, bonds\u2019 selling price will increase.
