Hey, I recently started investing in a few corporate bonds through BondScanner, and it’s been a super smooth experience so far.
I had one question though, can I sell my bond before maturity on the platform?
Basically, if I need liquidity mid-way, is there any option to exit early like we do with mutual funds or stocks?
Great question, @Divishtha, this is something a lot of first-time bond investors ask.
Currently, BondScanner allows investors to purchase bonds and hold them till maturity. However, the secondary market (resale) feature is not yet live on the platform.
The good news, we’re actively building a “Sell on Exchange” option that’ll allow you to list your bonds for resale through exchange-approved brokers.
Once live, you’ll be able to:
View all bonds eligible for resale directly from your portfolio
Place sell orders seamlessly through the platform
Track realized capital gains directly in your tax summary
This will make your bonds as liquid as any other exchange-traded instrument, while staying fully compliant with SEBI’s OBPP framework.
Oh I see, that’s helpful.
Thanks.
Happy to help.
