Fixed Income FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

What is the minimum investment required for fixed income products?

The specific product in question determines the required minimum investment. The minimum investment for fixed deposits can start at ₹1,000, whereas bonds and mutual funds may require higher minimum amounts based on the fund house and investment type.

Are returns assured on fixed income products?

Government bonds and fixed deposits offer guaranteed returns amounting to the coupon rate mentioned, assuming they are held to maturity. Returns on corporate bonds and debt mutual funds can depend on market conditions and the creditworthiness of the issuer.

What factors should I consider when selecting a suitable fixed income instrument?

Selecting the appropriate instrument is dependent on your investment objectives, risk appetite, and time frame. Anand Rathi's expert advisors can assist you in identifying the most appropriate fixed income options tailored to your requirements.

What distinguishes fixed deposits from bonds?

Fixed deposits are available through banks, ensuring reliable returns for investors. On the other hand, corporations or governments issue bonds, which have the potential to yield higher returns, but they also carry an increased risk due to credit and interest rate fluctuations.

Is it possible to access my investment prior to its maturity date?

Fixed deposits and bonds typically feature a predetermined maturity period. Withdrawing funds prematurely could result in penalties or a decrease in accrued interest. Debt mutual funds provide enhanced flexibility and liquidity options.

Are fixed income investments appropriate for retirees?

Absolutely. Fixed income investments serve as an excellent choice for retirees targeting consistent income while minimising risk exposure. They ensure a consistent cash flow, helping retirees effectively manage their living expenses.

What is the frequency of interest payments from my fixed income investments?

The frequency of interest payments depends on the specific product. Fixed deposits typically offer options for interest payouts on a quarterly, annual, or maturity basis. Bonds generally offer annual or semi-annual interest payments, whereas debt mutual funds yield returns depending upon their performance.

What are tax-free bonds?

Government-backed entities issue tax-free bonds, offering tax-exempt interest income. This makes them a compelling choice for investors aiming to minimize their tax outgo.

What is the impact of interest rates on fixed income investments?

The relationship between interest rates and bond prices is inversely correlated. As interest rates increase, the value of current bonds generally declines. As a result, the impact of interest fluctuations on returns for fixed income products is significant.

Is it possible to invest in fixed income products via mutual funds?

Certainly. Debt mutual funds offer access to a diverse range of fixed income securities, facilitating diversification and expert management of your fixed income portfolio.
