How to calculate bond yield when no interests are paid?

These series differ by two factors – buyback option, and payment of interest.

We looked at the buyback option and how it affects bond yield earlier, and now let's look at payment of interest. One series pays out interest annually, whereas the other series doesn't pay out any interest annually, but rather pays a lump-sum at the end of the time period.

Let's first look at the yield for the series that pays a lump-sum.

You already know what your effective purchase price is, and you also know what you will get at the end of the time period, so all you need to do is to plug in these numbers in the Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) Calculator and see what the yield is.

Conceptually you are saying that if I start out with Rs. 3,455 (30.9% tax rate) then what is the rate of interest at which I should invest this sum, and also the interest earned every year, so that I reach at the amount at the end – Rs. 7,180 (series 4 example).

Here is how that table looks like.

The post about CAGR also details how it is calculated, so you can read more there.

In future to calculate any bond yield where there are no annual interest payments look for these elements:

  • Face Value
  • Tax Bracket
  • Effective purchase price
  • Time in years
  • Buyback amount

Then use effective purchase rate, time and buyback amount in the CAGR calculator to find out the yield.

Happy Investing!!

Liquidity Adjustment Facility

Liquidity adjustment facility (LAF) is a money market tool used by the central bank of a country (in India it is the Reserve Bank of India ), to infuse funds into the country's banking system when liquidity dries up. Again, in case there is excess liquidity, the central bank uses some tools to help banks manage their surplus liquidity. Usually the RBI uses the repurchase facility (called Repo ) to give short-term loans to banks to meet their temporary liquidity shortage. On the other, hand RBI uses reverse repo facility to help banks park their excess liquidity with it. Banks usually use various securities, which are approved by the RBI, as collateral when they take money from the RBI to meet their short term liquidity requirement     Best Tax Saver Mutual Funds or ELSS Mutual Funds for 2015 1.

Mutual Fund Review: Tata Balanced

  It underperformed severely at first, but Tata Balanced has shown its mettle in the past five years… After five years of severe underperformance, the fund began to pull up its socks in 2002 and delivered a brilliant performance in 2003. Such a top quartile performance was repeated only in 2007 and 2009. By and large, this fund is not known for its outstanding returns, but over a long-period of time, its investors won't be unhappy. Over the past five years ended May 31, 2011 it has delivered an annualized return of 14 per cent (category average: 11%).   In 2008, it was the high exposure to Metals and Capital Goods that hit the fund hard. Towards the end of that year, exposure to both the sectors was reduced significantly while that to FMCG was increased. Once the market began to rally in 2009, the fund manager immediately reduced allocation to FMCG from 16 per cent (March 2009) to 4 per cent (May 2009) and exposure to Technology began to increase. These moves helped the fund...
