REC had issued Unsecured Zero Coupon Bonds in 2010.
With a maturity period of 10 years, these bonds now have remaining 8 years to mature in Dec 2020.
These bonds are now being offered as per details below:
Investment Value : Rs.8,06,000 (i.e. 50 bonds at Rs.16,120 per bond)
Face Value on maturity : Rs.15,00,000 (i.e. 50 bonds at Rs.30,000 per bond)
Effective Yield : 8.20%
No interest is payable on these bonds. Instead they are issued at a discount. The difference between the discounted price payable now and the face value that you receive on maturity becomes your gains.
Taxation : The gains will be treated as Long Term Capital Gains. Thus, with indexation benefit over 8 years, the net tax liability may be nominal or even nil (depending on the inflation during this period).
TDS : No TDS is applicable.
Investment Period : Jan 17 to 28, 2013
Issuance : In demat form
Rating : AAA/Stable by CRISIL; LAAA by ICRA; AAA(ind) by FITCH and AAA by CARE
This is a safe investment to put in lump-sum money for long term needs such as retirement, children's education/marriage, etc. Considering that tax may be nominal, the yield of 8.20% is quite attractive.
