About this bond

IIFL Finance Mar ’27 is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 8.2%. It pays a coupon of 8.6% and matures on 24 Mar 2027, a remaining tenure of about 6 mo. It is rated AA, a high credit-safety grade. BondScanner lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.0L.

Its 8.2% yield is solid for its risk band, toward the lower end at 234th of 265 Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 2.30 points, so the trade-off is lower yield for whatever else this issuer offers. A comparable SBI fixed deposit yields about 5.90%, so this bond adds roughly 2.30 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 very high safety (AA) 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 8.2% 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) 8.20% ₹1,04,268
5% slab 7.79% ₹1,04,058
20% slab 6.56% ₹1,03,427
30% slab 5.74% ₹1,03,004

At a 8.6% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹8,600 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 0.5 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 5.90%.

Fixed deposit at 5.90%₹1,03,155
Difference+₹1,113

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 AA credit risk is the reason for the gap.

When you get paid

Interest lands once a year, in Mar, with about 1 payment still to come before 24 Mar 2027, each at the 8.6% 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.
