This guide explains the process of redeeming a Sovereign Gold Bond (SGB) at its 8-year maturity date. SGBs are issued by the Government of India under the SGB Scheme, administered by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) . Each SGB tranche has a fixed tenor of 8 years from its original issue date. At maturity, RBI redeems the bonds at the prevailing gold price and the capital gains arising from the maturity redemption are exempt from capital gains tax for all holders, including secondary market buyers who hold to maturity.
