ABOUT CORPORATE BONDS
What are Corporate Bonds
  • Corporate Bonds are financial instruments (or securities) through which companies raise debt from investors. The capital raised is used to achieve business objectives such as starting new projects, scaling existing businesses, or working capital needs

  • Investors who buy bonds are lending money to such companies that issue the bonds. In return, the companies enter a binding commitment to make interest payments periodically and repay the principal amount on the maturity date.

Partner Curation and Due Diligence

How we evaluate Corporate bonds investment opportunities

Financials.svg

Downside Protection

Curate Corporate Bonds that are secured. The value of the security is usually higher than the principal of the loan; hence, in a draconian scenario, the investors have a higher probability of recovering their capital.

Investment Grade Rated

Identify Corporate Bonds that are rated by reputed credit rating agencies such as CRISIL, ICRA, and India Ratings (Fitch), and are investment grade rated, implying a low risk of default.

For your knowledge

Risks Involved

  • While bonds are generally capital-protected and carry investment grade ratings, the bond issuer may not be able to pay back in extreme circumstances such as bankruptcy.
  • While bonds are listed on exchanges, they might not be actively traded. For an exit prior to the maturity date, the investor may have to find an alternate buyer. Grip does not guarantee the ability to find such a buyer and a fair exit price.
  • There is an inverse relationship between interest rates and the price of a bond. If interest rates increase, the price of a bond may fall, and the investor may have to incur losses if they sell the instrument before the maturity date.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Grip enabling Corporate Bonds investments at lower ticket sizes?

The bonds selected by Grip have a face value ranging from INR 10,000 to INR 1 Lac. Grip is not fractionalizing any of these bonds but is selling at minimum lot sizes.
Grip acts as a distributor of the bonds sourced from partner institutions such as Oxyzo Financial Services, etc.
Ratings represent the creditworthiness of the bond after evaluating key metrics including the issuer’s financial strength, previous track record and liquidity.
There are 2 types of bonds: Listed and Unlisted. Listed bonds are traded through an exchange such as BSE or NSE. Unlisted bonds are not traded on an exchange but through the over-the-counter (OTC) market. Market makers facilitate the buying and selling of unlisted bonds in the OTC market. Because they are not exchange traded, unlisted bonds can be less liquid than listed bonds.

 

Secured corporate bonds are backed by collateral that the issuer may sell to repay you if the bond defaults. The issuer pledges specific collateral—such as property, equipment, or other assets that it owns—as security for the bond. If the issuer defaults, holders of secured bonds will have a legal right to sell the collateral to satisfy their claims.
Bonds are tradable instruments on the stock exchange. This means that there is no lock-in on your bond investment. If you want to sell the instrument before maturity, you can do so in the secondary market at the market price (market price may vary from par-value).
