The Definitive Guide to What Are Corporate Bonds

Build Predictable Income via Corporate Bonds in India with Aspero

Want steady cash flows without equity-style swings? Corporate bonds paired with Aspero’s guided journey make a compelling case for your core portfolio.

Understanding Corporate Bonds in India

{Corporate bonds are debt instruments issued by companies to raise funds for expansion, operations, or other strategic needs. Investors earn regular interest (periodic payments) and the principal back at redemption. Unlike equities, these instruments offer predictable returns and are generally less volatile. On Aspero’s marketplace, you can explore a curated list of bonds rated by SEBI-recognized credit agencies, with available yields typically between about 8% to 15%. Do note, credit risk and interest-rate risk still apply, so ratings, tenure, and issuer quality remain important.|

Make Bonds Work in Your Mix

{Consider staggering maturities (e.g., 9, 12, 18, 24 months) to manage reinvestment risk. Blend higher-yield issues with higher-rated credits to optimize risk/return. Reinvest coupon payouts to compound results or allocate them to expenses for predictable cash flow. Always check rating updates and issuer news, and diversify across issuers and sectors.|

Balance Return with Prudence

{All bonds carry default risk, interest-rate risk, and marketability risk. Yield and risk travel together. Read the offer docs, understand duration, coupon frequency, embedded options, and tax implications. Use Aspero’s tools and disclosures to evaluate objectively before investing.
