Review of soverign gold bond scheme

Review of Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Dec-2019 Series-VII

by Holistic Leave a Comment | Filed Under: Gold-Investment

Whether it is the occasion of Akshaya Trithiya, Dhanteras, Diwali, or the big fat Indian wedding, Indians love buying gold. Taking into account our obsession with sovereigns, the government has introduced a lucrative opportunity to invest in gold bullion via the sovereign gold bond scheme series-VII.

Salient Features of Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

  • Open for subscription from 2nd Dec 2019.
  • Last date to subscribe is 6th Dec 2019.
  • Bonds will be issued on 10th Dec 2019.
  • Bonds will be in either physical or dematerialized form.
  • You can invest in denominations of gold in grams.
  • Minimum investment starts from 1 gram.
  • Rs.50 discount per gram of gold.
  • Upper limit of 4 kilograms for 1 fiscal year.
  • Get 2.5% interest per annum credited every 6 months.
  • On maturity, take the amount worth the current gold value.
  • An 8 year time period of investment.
  • Bond can act as collateral to secure loans from your bank.
  • Reliable and safe, as issued by the Government of India.

Market Value of Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

The bonds can be traded in the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange, though the market value would vary, depending on current gold rates and the interest accumulated.

Tax Implications for Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

  • While the interest received from this scheme is taxable, the capital appreciation you receive, which is separate from interest, is exempt from being taxed.
  • In case you transfer or gift this bond to someone else, he or she will be taxed on the long-term capital gain.

Exit And Withdrawal From Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

If you wish to exit from this scheme, you can do so at the completion of a minimum of 5 years.

Although the bond has a lock-in period of eight years, withdrawal is possible 1, 2, or 3 years before maturity, and during the half-yearly phase of interest credit.

Maturity Amount for Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

At the end of the maturity period one can get the final amount keeping in view the current gold prices.For example, if you bought 30 grams of gold at the rate of Rs.6000/gram and after the maturity period the rates have soared to Rs.8000/gram you would get Rs. 2,40,000.

Anyway, the final amount will be concurrent with the current gold rate at the time of maturity, which will make it possible for you to buy the required sovereigns of jewellery.

Buying Options for Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

You can avail this scheme in major banks like ICICI, HDFC, and SBI, as well as Post Offices and the Stock Holding Corporation of India.

KYC is mandatory to apply for this scheme.

Prospective Customers for Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

  • All resident citizens of India.
  • Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs).
  • Partnership firms.
  • Corporate companies registered in India.

Non Resident Indians (NRIs) cannot apply for the scheme.

A Few Points to Consider Regarding Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme Series-VII Dec-2019

Gold bonds as long term investments:

  • While this scheme is intended to encourage the purchase of gold as tangible asset in future, there has been little appreciation in gold prices in the last few years.
  • Gold has not appreciated even at bank FD rates.
  • If you intend to invest in this scheme purely for appreciation value, then you might want to hedge your bets.
  • Gold has been bearish in the market for quite some time. You can get better returns by investing in mutual funds and bank FDs.

Gold bonds for future consumption requirements:

  • You might also want to invest in this scheme, like the majority of Indians do, for marriage and ceremonial occasions in the future.
  • For example, if you want to accumulate gold for your daughter’s wedding, you can invest in these bonds. These bonds are the best form of investing in gold compared to the other options like e-gold, wallet gold, gold ETF and physical gold.

Conclusion

Gold rates will continue to be unpredictable. But this scheme is the best option to ensure that in future, you can save for the sovereigns of jewellery that you require for your daughter’s marriage, or as gifts for your spouse. Furthermore, you don’t have to take the trouble of storing real gold in bank lockers and home safes and keep worrying about their safety.

I have been using Holistic Investment Planners for the last three years. Mr. Srinivasavaradhan answered all my questions and doubts very patiently during the first free consultation. I was able to clearly define my short-, medium- and long-term goals once I signed up for the comprehensive plan and got their investment plan suggestion to achieve my goals. They are very polite and highly professional whenever I contact them for any queries or make investments. They never pressurize you to invest on their recommended financial products. I would have been lost money by investing directly without their help since I do not have time and knowledge about different financial products. Risk planning is also done as part of financial planning. Truly, they are holistic planners when it comes to your financial planning. They help you to define your life goals, understand your financial resources and establish a plan to invest towards reaching those goals. They do review your plan as you progress to make sure that you are on correct path to achieve those goals. Kudos to the team and keep up the good work!!! I am happy that I found holistic investment planners for my financial planning and management.

I was about to retire and really not understanding how to invest money to have financial freedom and fulfilling my goals. Was desperately searching on internet way out and fortunately came across Holistic Investment Planners. I read number of articles on their website and realized that this is the agency which I want and engaged their services for my retirement planning. It is an excellent experience to be associated with Holistic. Right from day one our interaction was fantastic and they gave me such a wonderful plan that I had never imagined. I am fortunate enough to be in the client list of Holistic. I have recommended Holistic to my friends as well.

I have been using Holistic Investment Planners from last one year. The journey has been fantastic. Being a finance person myself I always thought we can look after and plan own finances also. However, due to lack of time and deciplain the things are not always as desired. After joining with Holistic Investment for the first time Icame to know the Financial goals and quantified them. Some dreams were unrealistic based on the earnings and savings so had a reality check. Also got the information and deciplain of investing on regular and more rewarding securities. I definetly suggest to use Holistic Investment Planners. They are professionals, available and hear youor full story before presenting plans. They are flexile in the sense if there are some urgent deviations required, they help to plan the same. For all professionals/individuals I would suggest using professional help of Holistic Investment Planners for best results in long term investment and financial goals achivements. Last advise will be to start early in your life. It really pays well to start in the beginning itself else the dreams needs to adjust :)

I came to know about Holistic Investment Planners online while searching for different investment ideas. Once I contacted them the journey was very smooth. Mr. Ramalingam explained all the aspects of Financial planning in detail and it opened my mind. I realized how important it is to have a Financial planning. Mr. Rajan suggested all the requirements as per my goals and made a Investment plan keeping in mind of my goals. I started my Investment journey with them. I wish I had done it some years back then it would have been in a different level. Review meetings were held every six month to check the implementation of the plan and check the results as per the requirements and to check if any changes required. Overall it was a good experience with Holistic Investment team and would like to continue in the years to come.

I came across Holistic investment planners almost 5-6 years back, but I did not have the trust since I had met a few of them who did not sound promising. Then I started investing through a financial advisor of my friend. After 4 years of investing the returns were very low. I was disappointed and started looking for financial advisors when I came across Holistic investment. I had a detailed discussion about my goals and the way they would approach achieving my goal before deciding to switch my investments to them. After a thorough analysis of my then existing portfolios, they suggested new ones and we zeroed-in on 6 schemes/funds where our investment would be split. I am glad I made the decision of switching over and taking Holistic planner's advise, my returns are handsome and I only wish I could have taken their help/advise 5 years back itself. Neverthless, I would like to recommend their services for investment and financial advise if someone is serious about their investments.
