got my first t.bond interest this week for fxd2/2014/5.whats the current rate and price of this bond in the secondary market at nse?


Check above on the implied yields should be around 11.5%...Its basically a 2 year paper...


i got 12% interest during its auction in march.was thinking to add the same but maybe it will be hard for me to get it in the secondary market as you said? but i can still wait for maturity in 2019 and get another good paper.or what can your advice be?

It's hard getting the exact paper but you can source for another similar paper depending on your investment plan....

Yeah,the whole thing is archaic, I cannot imagine having to start the application process afresh so that they reactivate my existing account, surely.It beats logic.

@Maka, since no interest rates are mentioned in the current bond (FXD 2/2017/5), what metric does one use to know whether to get in or not?

You check where the 5 year bond is trading at....yield curve...implied yields for Friday.
But then if its a small amount you just bid at average the difference in basis points from the cutoff is a negligible fig most times...
