What Is Fixed Income?Fixed income broadly refers to those types of investment security that pay investors fixed interest or dividend payments until their maturity date. At maturity, investors are repaid the principal amount they had invested. Government and corporate bonds are the most common types of fixed-income products.Unlike equities that may pay out no cash flows to investors, or variable-income securities, where payments can change based on some underlying measure—such as short-term interest rates—the payments of a fixed-income security are known in advance and remain fixed throughout.In addition to purchasing fixed-income securities directly, there are several fixed-income exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds available to investors.Companies and governments issue debt securities to raise money to fund day-to-day operations and finance large projects. For investors, fixed-income instruments pay a set interest rate return in exchange for investors lending their money. At the maturity date, investors are repaid the original amount they had invested—known as the principal.For example, a company might issue a 5% bond with a $1,000 face or par value that matures in five years. The investor buys the bond for $1,000 and will not be paid back until the end of the five years. Over the course of the five years, the company pays interest payments—called coupon payments—based on a rate of 5% per year. As a result, the investor is paid $50 per year for five years. At the end of the five years, the investor is repaid the $1,000 invested initially on the maturity date. Investors may also find fixed-income investments that pay coupon payments monthly, quarterly, or semiannually.#investment #interestrates #finance #security #change #money #projects #investments #mutualfunds #payments

Whether to invest in equity oriented mutual funds or debt oriented mutual funds? This decision is a complex one to make. The investor must look for the benefits and shortcomings of both, and should consider the risk that they are willing to take, and then must make a well informed and wise decision. The following points about investing in equity oriented mutual funds must also be taken into consideration-1) Significant tax advantage over most other investments can be claimed.2) Long term capital gains are tax-free up to ₹1 Lakh in a financial year and taxed at 10% thereafter.3) Short term capital gains are taxed at 15%.Even though there are numerous benefits of investing in equity oriented mutual funds, some investors might want to take less risk and would be willing to earn a little less but constant return on their investments, they must go for debt oriented mutual funds. The following are some points that might help them in coming to a decision-1) Short Term Capital Gains are when the investments were held for less than 3 years before selling them off.2) Long-Term Capital Gains are for tenures of 3 years or more. These are taxed at 20% after allowing for indexation, eventually reducing the tax payable.3) Stable returns on investment, usually higher than bank FDs. The investor must look wisely and consider all options available, and then come to a decision. #tax #investment #investing #mutualfunds

Taxation on mutual fundIn light of amendments to the Finance Act, 2023, capital gains from mutual fund investments, with a domestic equity allocation below 35 percent, are taxed as per the investor's slab rate. Consequently, debt mutual fund investments made after April 1, 2023, are not eligible for benefits associated with long-term capital gains (LTCG) and indexation.
