a company agrees to pay a fixed rate of interest on your investment for
a specified period in order to raise money from market for business
purposes. As the name suggests, these debentures cannot be converted
into shares of issuing company unlike convertible debentures. Interest
on NCDs is paid at different time period like quarterly, semi-annually
or annually. They also have an option of cumulative interest in which
case interest is cumulated & paid on maturity
An NCD can be secured or unsecured. Secured NCDs are backed by
the issuer company's assets to fulfill the debt obligation unlike
unsecured NCDs. The NCD issues are rated by credit rating agencies
like CRISIL, ICRA, FITCH, and CARE to ensure the company's ability to
service the debt on time & lower default risk.
