Public vs Private Issue of Debt -Scenario India
private placements rather than public issues still dominate the debtmarkets and stands at about 99% of total resources mobilized
We are today ,where Brazil was in 2006-2007

Though G-Sec Bond market is inline( in terms of percentage of
GDP) with the rest of the world, Indian Corporate Bond specifically
the pubic issuance is lagging far behind. Presently almost all
corporate Bonds are issued via private placement due to various
reasons like limited disclosure requirement and lower regulatory
hurdles. To increase the size of Public issues in corporate Bond
market it is important to increase retail participation. India would be
needing close to USD 1 trillion for development of infrastructure
sector in the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17).To meet this requirement
I explore the possibility of Increasing the Retail Participation by
Identifying way which can increase liquidity in India in Corporate
Bond Market

Various Fixed Instruments Present inIndia
S.No.
Investment Tenure ExpectedReturn
Tax Applicability Comments
1 BankFixedDeposits
Few daysto severalyears
Usuallyover 8%
Taxable at theinvestors slab
Bank failures are rare in India so bankfixed deposits are a very safe way toinvest your money.The rates is known up front so there isno uncertainty there.Taxes can reduce returns, especially ifyou are in the high tax bracket, but
even then a FD that compoundsquarterly and is done for a longmaturity will yield well.
2 Tax SaverBank FixedDeposits
5 years ormore
Usuallyover8.5%
The amount invested intax saver FD isdeductible from yourtaxable income up to a
limit of Rs. 1 lakh under80C. The interestincome itself is taxable.
Like the bank fixed deposit, this is alsoa very safe and certaininvestment.The drawback is thatmoney is locked in for at least 5 years,
and the positive is that you get sometax benefit to juice up your return.
3 PublicProvidentFund
15 years 8.80%The amount investedis eligible for 80Cdeductions and thereturns are tax free
too.
This is also a very safe investment, and thereturns are spectacular, specially forsomeone in the 30% tax bracket.If you dont
mind the 15 year wait period then no otherfixed income investment can match the PPFreturn for the safety it offers.

Very useful for elderly people
6 MonthlyIncome
Scheme
5 years 8.50% Interest income istaxable
This is useful if you are looking foran instrument that gives you a
monthly income. Here is link to apost about MIS.
7 Tax FreeBonds
They trade onthe stockexchange soyou can buy orsell any time.
Usuallyupwards of
8%
Income is tax freecategorized as fairly secureinstruments.If you buy these bonds from thestock market right now, they aretrading at higher than their face
value so your effective yield will beless but then there is always achance to make capital gains ifinterest rates come down.
8 FixedMaturityPlans
1 year or more Not fixedbut usuallycomparable
to fixed
deposits
This is taxefficient whencompared withFDs..
Although these are fixed incomeinstruments, there is absolutely noguarantee or indication of what thereturns will be like.
To that extent, they are verydifferent from the other instruments

Constraints that Limit the demand forthe bonds
On the demand side, pension funds and Provident funds, who couldbe large buyers of corporate debt, are constrained by their prudentialnorms and conservative investment policies.(this is soon going tochange as per new govt policy expected)
Mutual Funds, and to a lesser extent insurance companies, arebuyers of higher yield debt, but do not create enough demand for themarket to grow. India would be needing close to USD 1 trillion fordevelopment of infrastructure sector in the 12th Five Year Plan(2012-17).This requirement alone cannot be met by the bankingsector.
Banks tend to prefer loans to bonds, because loans can be carriedon the books without being marked to market, thus reducing the
possibility of unexpected demands on bank capital. Foreign investors, who do not suffer from the same sources of risk
version as Indian institutions,are allowed only to a very limited extentinto the market (a total of US$ 3 billion).
The absence of a reliable system of resolving financial distress
All these factor give rise to limited liquidity and is not a favorablecondition for Retail participant who would participate only if themarket was vibrant
7/30/2019 Policy Prescription for Indian Corporate Bond Market
16/34
Constraints that Limit the issuancefor the bonds
The high interest rates demanded by buyers,because bonds are illiquid and because bondholders are poorly protected in bankruptcy,means that bank debt is available at much more
attractive terms.(syndicated loan) Larger corporate issuers had access to much
cheaper funds in the offshore debt capitalmarkets (Even after hedging their currency risks,
the total cost of borrowing offshore is much lowerthan the cost of borrowing in the domesticmarket, Hence the Strong growth in ECB)
Fear of the Issue not being subscribe(reputational risk)
7/30/2019 Policy Prescription for Indian Corporate Bond Market
17/34
Market Participants Opinion(Survey) PSU issues not much credit related issue ,but for Non
PSU much of Due Diligence is required
Volumes are very less
Retail Participant would not come in till Institutions
subscribe large part of the issue Individuals still prefer to go to Banks (9-10% rate)
Most Issues happening by NBFCs (hence appetite isless)
Stamp duty needs to be rationalized ( 0.25% of issue)
Rating cost and Disclosure requirement for everysubsequent issue is stringent
Need for active market making
7/30/2019 Policy Prescription for Indian Corporate Bond Market
18/34
Market Participants Opinion Need for Credit enhancement by RBI,to bolster
confidence
Printing cost is high (about 0.25% of the issuesize)
Debt Redemption Reserves is an Issue .(CurrentDRR requires company issuing debentures mustcreate reserves within 12 months ,else a penaltyof 2% is to be paid)

Amend Bankruptcy code so that the right of the
unsecured creditors are protected Reduce the transactions costs in issuing and trading
corporate bonds, including repeated onerousdisclosures (move instead to a shelf-registrationscheme), as well as high stamp duties;
Reduce the artificial preference of banks for loans bysubjecting loans and bonds to similar mark-to-marketrequirements, especially for aspects such as interestrate exposure that are easily measured

What is Negotiable Negotiation thus requires two conditions (As per
the Act) to be fulfilled, namely:
There must be a transfer of the instrument toanother person; and
The transfer must be made in such a manner as toconstitute the transferee the holder of theinstrument.

Can be made Negotiable ! Although the Act mentions only these three instruments(such as a promissory note, a bill of exchange and
cheque), it does not exclude the possibility of adding anyother instrument which satisfies the following twoconditions of negotiability: the instrument should be freely transferable (by delivery or by
endorsement. and delivery) by the custom of the trade; and the person who obtains it in good faith and for value should
get it free from all defects, and be entitled to recover themoney of the instrument in his own name.
Hence as such, documents like share warrants payableto bearer, debentures payable to bearer and dividendwarrants are negotiable instruments. But the money ordersand postal orders, deposit receipts, share certificates, billof lading, dock warrant, etc. are not negotiableinstruments.

financial Literacy while at the same time gaugingthe present level of literacy

APPENDIX :Negotiable ActDefinitions Bills-of-Exchange :A non-interest-bearing written order used primarily
in international trade that binds one party to pay a fixed sum of moneyto another party at a predetermined future date.
Promissory Note :A written, dated and signed two-party instrumentcontaining an unconditional promise by the maker to pay a definite sumof money to a payee on demand or at a specified future date.
Bills of exchange are similar to checks and promissory notes. They canbe drawn by individuals or banks and are generally transferable byendorsements. The difference between a promissory note and a bill ofexchange is that this product is transferable and can bind one party to
pay a third party that was not involved in its creation. If these bills areissued by a bank, they can be referred to as bank drafts. If they areissued by individuals, they can be referred to as trade drafts.
A bearer instrument is a document that indicates that the owner of thedocument has title to property, such as shares or bonds. Bearerinstruments differ from normal registered instruments, in that no
records are kept of who owns the underlying property, or of the
