@Prayag 8.24% GS 2027 15-Feb-2007 15-Feb-2027 Aug 15 & Feb 15 sir this gsec coupen payement is not credited in aug 15

The payout is calculated on the number of days you have kept the bond in demat right?

5

The payout is calculated on the number of days you have kept the bond in demat right?

Which is always half an year for semi-annual interest payments on GSECs.

Also, if a bond is purchased on the secondary market, then whoever is holding the bond on the record-date receives the entire payout for the recently concluded period (last half an year in case of GSECs).

This is why one can notice the ASK prices of a bond on the secondary markets are relatively higher as one approaches the record-date of the bond.

ok got it. i was still under the assumption that the GOI bond’s interest payout works like the SGBs

@bhuvan @ShubhS9 @Meher_Smaran why credit of g-secs to demat is being delayed on regular basis ???Earlier g-secs used to be credited to demat on Monday. Settlement date as per RBI auction is also Monday. Moreover, Zerodha doesn’t forget to raise brokerage invoice on Monday. Status is also shown as “allotted” on Monday on Coin platform.

GSEC auction credits directly happen to your demat and the depository participant (Zerodha) is not involved in this process. We’ve noticed that GSEC credits have been delayed at times after completion of our EOD processes. In such cases, we do holdings dump to Kite every morning to ensure that securities credited late in your demat account are available for sale.

When you place a GSEC order on Coin, the amount required for the transaction is blocked in your trading account which will be debited by the clearing corp (CC) on the day of settlement i.e T+2 Monday. When the money is pulled by the CC, the invoice is generated and the excess blocked amount is reversed.

Hi…
Does it mean that gsec has to be held for 6 months minima to get interest payout?
What if interest payment is due in December and we buy the gsec now?
Can you please help?
Thanks

10

Yes, you can. Theoretically, The price of the gsec increases as interest date approaches and falls after interest is paid out. If the interest payment is in December, you’ll get the accrued interest so far from June to November(included in the price of the bond that you buy) as well as the interest from November to December.

Do note that liquidity is of concern and prices may not exactly follow theory. In addition, if interest rate falls, bond prices “should theoretically” rise and vice versa.

11

No, not always.
Depends on when one purchases the bond and when the bond is scheduled to pay out.

Will receive the interest in December.

Since GSECs typically pay-out twice a year,
note that the amount received in December will correspond to half the coupon-rate.
If one continues to hold the bond for the next 6 months, the same amount will also be received in June.
This will continue until the bond matures (date of maturity).

Whoever holds the bond on the record date receives the interest on the scheduled date.
Apparently, for GSECs, this “record date” is typically 15 days before each scheduled payment.
