Sovereign Gold Bond is quite a popular investment scheme and rightly so. It\u2019s one of the best ways to invest in gold due to ease of investment, easy management, tax free capital gains and guarantee by government of India. However there has always been confusion about Sovereign Gold Bond Dates <\/strong>\u2013 When the New Issue would come out. In the past 5 years there has been no particular trend for the Sovereign Gold Bond Dates. There have been times when there has been Sovereign Gold Bonds every week for 3 months and then there have been periods when there was no issue for 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I think government of India needs to work out a systematic timing for the same. The good thing is the government now publishes half-yearly schedules <\/a>in advance as the table below shows for FY 2021-22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We looked at more than 55 years history of gold to see if its a good idea to invest in Gold. We concluded that its more volatile than perceived but investing in long term may provide you with more stable returns. You can look at the complete analysis and our conclusion here – Looking at Gold Price History in India \u2013 Should you Invest in Gold?<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Ideally this should have been made more systematic like every first week of the month and additionally in Diwali (or other festivals). This would help the investors plan their cash-flows accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The table below lists down all the issues of Sovereign Gold Bond since 2015 \u2013 when the first issue came out in November 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you look at the table carefully, you will realise how the government has evolved with the Sovereign Gold Bond Dates<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have analysed all the Sovereign Gold Bonds issued till date to give you what kind of returns you can expect from the same. Till today there is just Sovereign Gold Bonds-2015-Series-I which was available for early redemption. For this the annual return has been 13.5% before tax and 12.8% after tax (30% slab). You can get more details here<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Looking at the above data it seems government was able to regularise the Sovereign Gold Bond Dates in FY 2020-21 and plans to have 12 issues every year \u2013 with 1 every month.<\/strong> I think Covid emergency like situation in April 2021, made it miss the first month.<\/p>\n\n\n\nShould you Invest in Gold?<\/strong><\/h4>
