Additional Features of Corporate Bonds

Coupon interest

Coupon (interest) is one of the features of the corporate bond funds. When one buys a bond, the company pays them interest regularly until they exit the corporate bond. This interest is called a coupon. The coupon interest is a specific percentage of the par value.

Yield to Maturity (YTM)

ytm measures the annual return an investor would receive until maturity. Yield to maturity allows one to compare a bond's expected return. The greater the YTM, higher will be your returns and vice versa.

Current yield

This is a measure of the interest income generated by the bonds in the Portfolio. For instance, if the coupon rate of a bond with an INR 1000 par value is 20 percent, then the issuer must pay you INR 200 as an annual interest.

Tax implications

If you hold corporate bonds for up to three years, then you must have to pay short term Capital Gains of 30 percent. And if you are holding corporate bonds for more than three years, then the returns are taxed under long term capital gains, i.e., at 20 percent with indexation benefit.
