While the bond tenure is 8 years, investors can choose to redeem their bonds prematurely after 5 years from the issue date on any coupon payment date.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

SGB Scheme Return:<\/strong> The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced that investors in Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGB) 2019-20 Series-IX and 2020-21 Series-V can opt for premature redemption on August 11, 2025, at Rs 10,070 per unit.<\/p>\n

As per the RBI\u2019s August 8 press release, the price is calculated using the simple average of closing gold prices (999 purity) for the three business days preceding redemption\u2014August 6, 7, and 8\u2014based on rates published by the India Bullion and Jewellers Association Ltd (IBJA).<\/p>\n

These government-backed bonds have an eight-year maturity but permit early redemption only after the fifth year from the issue date, and only on interest payout dates.<\/p>\n

For those who bought the 2019-20 Series-IX in September 2019 at Rs 4,070 per gram, the upcoming redemption will deliver an absolute gain of Rs 6,000 per unit\u2014about 147%\u2014excluding the 2.5% annual interest. Investors in the 2020-21 Series-V, issued in August 2020 at Rs 5,334 per gram, will earn Rs 4,736 per unit, or 89% absolute returns, excluding interest.<\/p>\n

Apart from capital gains, these bonds pay 2.5% fixed interest per year, credited twice annually to investors\u2019 bank accounts. The final interest is paid with the principal at maturity.<\/p>\n
