SGB premature redemption date today: Sovereign gold bond turns Rs 1 lakh investment into Rs 2.90 lakh; check details
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced the premature redemption price for Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGB 2020-21 Series-IV-Issue date July 14, 2020), the RBI has said in a statement. The maturity period of sovereign gold bonds (SGBs) is eight years. However, the premature redemption of SGBs is permitted after the fifth year from the date of the issuance of the series.
The SGB 2020-21 Series-IV was issued at Rs 4,852 per gram for offline investors. Online investors received a discount of Rs 50 per gram when applied and paid through digital mode. For such investors, the issue price of the Gold Bond was Rs 4,802 per gram.
The premature redemption price of SGB 2020-21 Series-IV due on January 14, 2026, is Rs 13,929 per unit of SGB based on the simple average of the closing price of gold for the three business days, i.e., January 9, January 12, and January 13, 2026.
How much return did investors get from the premature redemption of their investments in SGB 2020-21 Series-IV?
Since SGB 2020-21 Series-IV was issued at Rs 4,802 per gram on January 14, 2020, it will yield an absolute simple return of nearly 266% on the date of premature redemption.
The absolute return comes to Rs 13,929-Rs 4,802 = Rs 9,127 (without factoring in the interest). In percentage terms, it is 10,127 ÷ 4,802 × 100 = 190%.
SGBs offer an interest rate of 2.50% per annum on the initial investment amount. The interest amount is credited semi-annually to the bank account of the SGB investor. The last interest instalment is payable on the maturity date of SGB along with the principal.
The Sovereign Gold Bond (SGB) scheme, managed by the RBI on behalf of the Government of India, offers a secure, paper/demat alternative to holding physical gold, eliminating storage and purity concerns while paying a 2.5% annual interest. The premature redemption of SGBs is allowed after 5 years from the date of their issue, on interest payout dates.
The nominal value of Gold Bonds shall be in Indian rupees fixed on the basis of the simple average of the closing price of gold of 999 purity, published by the India Bullion and Jewelers Association Limited (IBJA), for the last 3 business days of the week preceding the subscription period.
