About this bond

Bajaj Finance Jul ’36 is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 7.9%. It pays a coupon of 7.79% and matures on 4 Jul 2036, a remaining tenure of about 9.8 yr. It is rated AAA, the highest credit-safety grade. BondScanner lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.0L.

Its 7.9% yield is on the conservative side, toward the lower end at 246th of 265 Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 2.60 points, so the trade-off is lower yield for whatever else this issuer offers. A comparable SBI fixed deposit yields about 6.55%, so this bond adds roughly 1.35 points for taking on credit risk. Its long 9.8 yr horizon locks in today's yield well into the future - useful if rates fall, a drag if they rise. Paired with its highest safety (AAA) rating, that leans toward the safety-first end. Compare it against similar bonds on RightBonds before investing.

Investors comparing this bond often also look at Bajaj Finance (INE296A07UB9) at 7.55%, Bajaj Finance (INE296A07TX5) at 7.48% and Aditya Birla Capital (INE674K08083) at 8.1%.

What you keep after tax

Interest on a listed corporate bond is added to your income and taxed at your slab, so the 7.9% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 9.8 yr.

Your tax slabPost-tax yield₹1,00,000 becomes
No tax (income under the exemption limit) 7.90% ₹2,10,860
5% slab 7.50% ₹2,03,407
20% slab 6.32% ₹1,82,446
30% slab 5.53% ₹1,69,572

At a 7.79% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹7,790 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 9.8 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 6.55%.

This bond at 7.9%₹2,10,860
Fixed deposit at 6.55%₹1,89,166
Difference+₹21,694

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 AAA credit risk is the reason for the gap.

When you get paid

Interest lands once a year, in Jul, with about 10 payments still to come before 4 Jul 2036, each at the 7.79% 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.
