SDL bond pledge?

Is it possible to pledge SDL bonds?

SDL can not be pledged as they are not approved for pledging, check the below list of approved securities for pledging

Thanks for the reply.
I have brought SDL with better interest rate then G sec, thinking SDL can also be pledge for trading.

Cool Cool…

Now please sell them SDLs at discount on NSE/BSE.
A bunch of us are waiting to buy them at a steep discount. :sweat_smile:

On a more serious note,

  • Either forget you have them and hold them till maturity, earning interest on them every 6 months,
  • or sell them off at a discount as described here
    • assuming someone is even willing to buy them on the secondary markets (NSE/BSE).
    • in this case even if you book a small loss (5-15%), atleast you have your capital back to trade.

Interest rate is good, better to hold it till maturity.
