In this video, I present a case for investing in long duration debt funds and long maturity government of India bonds. Ofcourse, predicting the interest rate cycle is important and I present some factors investors should consider to this effect i.e. when is the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) likely to reduce its repo rate which will increase bond prices and allow investors to make mark-to-market gains (capital appreciation) from the bonds held by them. In my view, the repo rate reductions are just 5-6 months away and fixed-income investors can capitalize on this to make potential returns of up to 15-16% -- double of what they make on fixed-income instruments like fixed deposits, debt funds and bonds. Additionally, considering tax advantages, listed bonds present an attractive investment option. 👉 Video Chapters: 00:00 Interest Rate Cycle & High Returns on Fixed Income Instruments 01:26 RBI Repo Rate and How to Calculate Bond Prices 06:30 Where are the RBI Repo Rates headed in 2024? 07:12 1.
