  • Secondary Market Buyers: Investors purchasing SGBs from stock exchanges will now face long-term capital gains tax (12.5% without indexation) upon redemption.
  • Tax Applicability: The changes apply to all SGBs sold or matured from April 1, 2026 onwards, affecting the 2026-27 tax year and beyond..
  • Interest Income: The 2.5% annual interest income remains taxable under "income from other sources"
  • An individual resident in India for self or on behalf of minor or jointly with other individual.
  • Trusts, HUFs, Charitable Institution or University.
  • Every application must be accompanied by the PAN Number.
  • The interest shall be paid at fixed rate of 2.50% per annum on the nominal value of bond. It is payable in half-yearly rests and last interest shall be payable along with the principal on maturity.
