What is the minimum amount required to invest in corporate bonds?
At FYERS, the minimum investment required to apply for corporate bonds—whether in the primary (Debt IPO) or secondary market—is typically ₹10,000. This accessible entry point allows retail investors to diversify their portfolios with fixed-income instruments without needing large capital.
Minimum investment amount: ₹10,000
- This applies to most corporate bonds available via the FYERS IPO Portal or secondary trading platforms.
- The actual minimum may vary slightly depending on the bond issuer or issue terms.
- Investment must be in multiples of the face value or lot size, as specified by the issuer.
What if...
| Scenario | What you should know |
|---|
| The issue requires more than ₹10,000 | Some corporate bonds (especially secured NCDs) may have a higher minimum bid—check the offer document |
| You apply below the minimum | The application may be rejected or not forwarded to the exchange |
| You want to invest small amounts monthly | Consider recurring participation in upcoming Debt IPOs to accumulate over time |
Before applying, always check the bond’s offer details on the FYERS IPO Portal, including face value, lot size, and bid multiples.
