Green = discount vs gold spot (below spot)Amber = premium vs gold spot (above spot)Gold spot = IBJA 999 purity per gram
§03 · EDUCATION · SGB MECHANICS

Why SGBs trade at a premium or discount to gold spot. Each SGB unit represents 1 gram of gold. RBI issues SGBs at the prevailing market price of gold (IBJA 999 purity average) at the time of subscription. After listing, the bond trades on NSE/BSE like any equity — its price diverges from the spot gold price based on liquidity, time-to-maturity, and investor demand.

The 2.5% coupon advantage. SGBs pay a fixed 2.5% p.a. coupon semi-annually on the initial subscription price. Physical gold and gold ETFs offer zero yield. This coupon creates a rational basis for SGBs to trade at a premium to spot, particularly for tranches with several years remaining to maturity.

Arbitrage opportunity for Authorised Participants (APs). When SGBs trade at a large discount to spot, APs can buy the bond, hold to maturity (or the next redemption window), and receive the prevailing gold price at redemption — effectively earning both the discount catch-up and the 2.5% coupon. This AP activity tends to compress large discounts over time.

Tax-free maturity for retail individual investors. Capital gains on SGB redemption at maturity are exempt from capital gains tax for retail individual investors (Section 47(viic) of the Income Tax Act). This is not available on gold ETFs or physical gold. Premature redemption after Year 5 on coupon dates is also possible and indexed to the prevailing gold price.
