About this bond
G-Sec Apr ’30 is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 6.5%. It pays a coupon of 7.17% and matures on 17 Apr 2030, a remaining tenure of about 3.6 yr. It is rated SOV, a sovereign instrument carrying the credit of the Government of India. BondScanner lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹105.
Its 6.5% yield is on the conservative side, toward the lower end at 265th of 265 Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 4.00 points, so the trade-off is lower yield for whatever else this issuer offers. Notably, a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit (6.55%) actually yields about 0.05 points more, so the case here rests on factors other than raw yield. Its medium 3.6 yr horizon balances rate lock-in against flexibility. Paired with its highest safety (SOV) rating, that leans toward the safety-first end.

Bond details
What you keep after tax
Interest on a listed corporate bond is added to your income and taxed at your slab, so the 6.5% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 3.6 yr.
| Your tax slab | Post-tax yield | ₹1,00,000 becomes |
|---|---|---|
| No tax (income under the exemption limit) | 6.50% | ₹1,25,420 |
| 5% slab | 6.17% | ₹1,24,049 |
| 20% slab | 5.20% | ₹1,20,001 |
| 30% slab | 4.55% | ₹1,17,355 |
At a 7.17% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹7,170 of interest a year, under the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so no TDS is withheld.
Slab rates only - surcharge and cess are not included, and the figures assume you hold to maturity. Sold on the exchange after 12 months instead, the gain is taxed as long-term capital gains at 12.5%. Not tax advice.
Against a fixed deposit, in rupees
Same ₹1,00,000, same 3.6 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 6.55%.
Bond figure compounds the yield annually; the FD compounds quarterly, as a cumulative bank FD does. Both are pre-tax and assume the bond is held to maturity and the issuer pays in full - the SOV credit risk is the reason for the gap.
When you get paid
Interest lands twice a year, in Apr, Oct, with about 8 payments still to come before 17 Apr 2030, each at the 7.17% coupon rate.
Payment months come from the issuer's schedule. Exact dates within the month, and the amount per payment, depend on the face value of the units you buy - check the term sheet on BondScanner before investing.
