Akme Fintrade Jan ’29
How this yield compares
About this bond
Akme Fintrade Jan ’29 is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 12.8%. It pays a coupon of 11.5% and matures on 18 Jan 2029, a remaining tenure of about 2.5 yr. It is rated BBB+, a moderate credit-safety grade. BondScanner lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹10K.
Its 12.8% yield is well above the market average, placing it 20th of the 175 Corporate bonds on RightBonds - firmly in the top tier. That is 2.05 percentage points above the Corporate median of 10.75% - a clear yield premium over the typical peer. Against a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit (6.65%), it pays roughly 6.15 points more - a large gap that only makes sense once you are comfortable with the issuer's credit. Its short 2.5 yr horizon locks the rate for only a few years, limiting reinvestment risk. Paired with its moderate safety (BBB+) rating, that is a higher-yield, higher-risk profile. Compare it against similar bonds on RightBonds before investing.
Investors comparing this bond often also look at Akme Fintrade (INE916Y07081) at 12.65%, AKME FINTRADE (INE916Y07099) at 12.6% and Keertana Finserv (INE0NES07303) at 13.9%.
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 12.8% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 2.5 yr.
| Your tax slab | Post-tax yield | ₹1,00,000 becomes |
|---|---|---|
| No tax (income under the exemption limit) | 12.80% | ₹1,34,615 |
| 5% slab | 12.16% | ₹1,32,738 |
| 20% slab | 10.24% | ₹1,27,200 |
| 30% slab | 8.96% | ₹1,23,587 |
At a 11.5% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹11,500 of interest a year. That is over the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so roughly ₹1,150 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 2.5 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 6.65%.
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.
