About this bond
Hero Fincorp is a corporate bond issued by a company to raise debt from investors, currently offering a yield to maturity (YTM) of 8.35%. It pays a coupon of 9.1% and matures on 18 Jan 2036, a remaining tenure of about 9.4 yr. It is rated AA+, a very high credit-safety grade. WintWealth lists this bond with a minimum investment of ₹1.1L.
Its 8.35% yield is solid for its risk band, toward the lower end at 227th of 265 Corporate bonds. That trails the Corporate median of 10.50% by 2.15 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 1.80 points for taking on credit risk. Its long 9.4 yr horizon locks in today's yield well into the future - useful if rates fall, a drag if they rise. Paired with its very high safety (AA+) rating, that leans toward the safety-first end.

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 8.35% headline is a pre-tax number. Here is the same bond seen from each slab, on ₹1,00,000 held for the remaining 9.4 yr.
| Your tax slab | Post-tax yield | ₹1,00,000 becomes |
|---|---|---|
| No tax (income under the exemption limit) | 8.35% | ₹2,11,694 |
| 5% slab | 7.93% | ₹2,04,187 |
| 20% slab | 6.68% | ₹1,83,072 |
| 30% slab | 5.84% | ₹1,70,102 |
At a 9.1% coupon, ₹1,00,000 of face value pays about ₹9,100 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 9.4 years, one in this bond and one in a tenure-matched SBI fixed deposit at 6.55%.
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 Nov, with about 10 payments still to come before 18 Jan 2036, each at the 9.1% 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.
