Data as of 26 Oct 2026
8% above face value
You pay ₹1,08,176 against a face value of ₹1,00,000, about 8% more. Part of any premium is simply interest accrued since the last coupon, but on this bond that can account for at most about 1% - it pays monthly at a 12% coupon. The remainder is a genuine premium: you are paying above face for the yield on offer, and your capital at risk is the full ₹1,08,176, not the face value.

About this bond
Slice Small Finance Bank is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 11.25%. It pays a coupon of 12% and matures on 17 Dec 2031, a remaining tenure of about 5.1 yr. It is rated BBB+, a moderate credit-safety grade. WintWealth lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.1L.
Its 11.25% yield is well above the market average, ranking 85th of 315 Corporate bonds we list. That is 0.85 percentage points above the Corporate median of 10.40% - a clear yield premium over the typical peer. Against a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit (6.55%), it pays roughly 4.70 points more - a large gap that only makes sense once you are comfortable with the issuer's credit. Its medium 5.1 yr horizon balances rate lock-in against flexibility. Paired with its moderate safety (BBB+) 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 11.25% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 5.1 yr.
| Your tax slab | Post-tax yield | ₹1,00,000 becomes |
|---|---|---|
| No tax (income under the exemption limit) | 11.25% | ₹1,73,002 |
| 5% slab | 10.69% | ₹1,68,552 |
| 20% slab | 9.00% | ₹1,55,750 |
| 30% slab | 7.87% | ₹1,47,660 |
At a 12% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹12,000 of interest a year. That is over the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so roughly ₹1,200 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
Same ₹1,00,000, same 5.1 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 BBB+ credit risk is the reason for the gap.
When you get paid
Interest lands every month, with about 63 payments still to come before 17 Dec 2031, each at the 12% 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.
