About this bond

Keertana Finserv is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 9.5%. It pays a coupon of 11.3% and matures on 6 Mar 2027, a remaining tenure of about 4 mo. It is rated BBB+, a moderate credit-safety grade. WintWealth lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.0L.

Its 9.5% yield is solid for its risk band, sitting 215th of 319 comparable Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 1.00 points, so the trade-off is lower yield for whatever else this issuer offers. Against a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit (5.15%), it pays roughly 4.35 points more - a large gap that only makes sense once you are comfortable with the issuer's credit. Its short 4 mo horizon locks the rate for only a few years, limiting reinvestment risk. Paired with its moderate safety (BBB+) 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 9.5% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 4 mo.

Your tax slabPost-tax yield₹1,00,000 becomes
No tax (income under the exemption limit) 9.50% ₹1,03,460
5% slab 9.03% ₹1,03,292
20% slab 7.60% ₹1,02,784
30% slab 6.65% ₹1,02,443

At a 11.3% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹11,300 of interest a year. That is over the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so roughly ₹1,130 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 0.4 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 5.15%.

Fixed deposit at 5.15%₹1,01,937
Difference+₹1,524

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 6 payments still to come before 6 Mar 2027, each at the 11.3% 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.
