Corporate Fixed Deposits and Bonds are fixed-income investment options where you lend money to a company and, in return, receive regular interest income and repayment of principal at maturity.
A bond is a debt security issued by companies, PSUs, or governments to raise funds. When you invest in a bond, you become a lender and receive interest (coupon) at regular intervals. They are popular among investors looking for stable returns with lower volatility compared to equities.
