About this bond

Fibe (EarlySalary) is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 8%. It pays a coupon of 10.7% and matures on 5 Mar 2027, a remaining tenure of about 6 mo. It is rated A-, an adequate credit-safety grade. WintWealth lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.0L.

Its 8% yield is solid for its risk band, toward the lower end at 240th of 265 Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 2.50 points, so the trade-off is lower yield for whatever else this issuer offers. A comparable SBI fixed deposit yields about 5.15%, so this bond adds roughly 2.85 points for taking on credit risk. Its short 6 mo horizon locks the rate for only a few years, limiting reinvestment risk. Paired with its high safety (A-) rating, that leans toward the safety-first end. Compare it against similar bonds on RightBonds before investing.

What you keep after tax

Interest on a listed corporate bond is added to your income and taxed at your slab, so the 8% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 6 mo.

Your tax slabPost-tax yield₹1,00,000 becomes
No tax (income under the exemption limit) 8.00% ₹1,03,749
5% slab 7.60% ₹1,03,565
20% slab 6.40% ₹1,03,011
30% slab 5.60% ₹1,02,640

At a 10.7% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹10,700 of interest a year. That is over the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so roughly ₹1,070 a year is withheld as TDS - adjustable against your final liability, not an extra tax.

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

Difference+₹1,272

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 A- credit risk is the reason for the gap.

When you get paid

Interest lands every month, with about 7 payments still to come before 5 Mar 2027, each at the 10.7% 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 WintWealth before investing.
