About this bond

Manba Finance Mar ’28 is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 11.1%. It pays a coupon of 11% and matures on 13 Mar 2028, a remaining tenure of about 1.4 yr. It is rated A-, an adequate credit-safety grade. BondScanner lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹61K.

Its 11.1% yield is well above the market average, ranking 97th of 315 Corporate bonds we list. That is 0.70 percentage points above the Corporate median of 10.40% - a clear yield premium over the typical peer. Against a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit (6.50%), it pays roughly 4.60 points more - a large gap that only makes sense once you are comfortable with the issuer's credit. Its short 1.4 yr horizon locks the rate for only a few years, limiting reinvestment risk. Paired with its high safety (A-) 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 11.1% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 1.4 yr.

Your tax slabPost-tax yield₹1,00,000 becomes
No tax (income under the exemption limit) 11.10% ₹1,15,630
5% slab 10.54% ₹1,14,834
20% slab 8.88% ₹1,12,455
30% slab 7.77% ₹1,10,876

At a 11% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹11,000 of interest a year. That is over the ₹10,000 Section 193 threshold, so roughly ₹1,100 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 1.4 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 6.50%.

This bond at 11.1%₹1,15,630
Fixed deposit at 6.50%₹1,09,304
Difference+₹6,327

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 A- credit risk is the reason for the gap.

When you get paid

Interest lands 4 times a year, in Mar, Jun, Sep, Dec, with about 6 payments still to come before 13 Mar 2028, each at the 11% 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.
