Request you to inform me if any infrastructure bonds are issued for investment under 80CCF in the current FY 2011-12
Just for the curiosity, Why the bonds are not always in open state ? Is it something peoples are more interested on this or bond providers are not willing to get more money by this ?
Thanks in advance 😉
You are welcome!!
Any finance company can issue a fixed number of bonds approved by regulators depending upon size and status of company.So its can not be perpetual….
Suppose any company have an asset of Rs 5000 crore then this company should not allowed to collect money of like Rs.20,000 crore Isn’t it? and so it can not be in open state..
Its like IPO where fixed number of shares are alloted in IPO and then trading starts in secondary market….
Hi,
I wish to get notified about the issue of infrastructure bonds. Please add me in the distribution list.

Thank you for your comment.
In general,Infrastructure bonds opens for subscription from August Or September.
As bonds are eligible for deduction upto Rs.20,000/- ,,its useful more for investors with higher tax brackets.
E.g. Investor in 20% tax bracket saves tax of Rs.4000 + Education cess and service tax.while investor in
30% tax bracket saves tax of Rs.6000/- + Educational cess and service tax.
