Frequently asked question about BHARAT Bond ETF

  • Minimum investment amount for the fund is ₹1000/- and in multiples of ₹1/- thereafter.
    Your money will be invested in bonds issued by CPSEs/CPSUs/CPFIs and other government organizations of AAA credit rating. These bonds are chosen such that their maturity co-terminates (as closely as possible) with the maturity of the fund.

    Investing in any fixed-income security has four major risks - price risk, credit risk, reinvestment risk, and liquidity risk. The fund mitigates these risks in the following manner:

    • Price risk - This product has a target maturity and if you hold your investments till maturity, the price fluctuation in the underlying bonds caused by market movements is diminished. However, if you withdraw/redeem before maturity, price risk will remain.
    • Credit risk - Each bond issuer is a Government of India's public sector enterprise with a credit rating of AAA. They are expected to meet their payment obligations in a timely manner thereby reducing risk of default.
    • Reinvestment risk - Coupons/interest received by the fund are reinvested in the similar underlying assets as that of the index/portfolio.
    • Liquidity risk - We have appointed a market maker to provide liquidity on the exchanges (NSE). Hence, you can buy/sell your units on exchange (NSE) anytime during trading hours.
