SGB ​​2019-20 Series X, which was priced ₹ 4,260 per unit, is now the RBI declared by RBI ₹ 10,905. That is, only price growth benefited you 156%. Not only this, this bond also received a guaranteed interest of 2.5% every year – ₹ 532.5 additional in 5 years. Overall, you made a net profit of ₹ 7,177.5 on a unit. This means total returns 168% – and that too without any risk or mahtan!
