Best investment for pledging – F&O – beragampengetahuan – Beragampengetahuan

Dear members…

I am looking for an instrument to buy and pledge and use for F&O margin… There are many instruments available but my primary focus is capital protection and liquidity.

I explored the RBI bonds, but the liquidity is not as expected. Say if i want to sell my bonds for some major reason, liquidity is not there…

Investing in mutual funds – debt – though good one, but associated with redemption charges, and rarely decrease in capital.

SGB – risk of capital reduction and liqudity.

I am not sure on Liquid funds – how much return they get… I am expecting an instrument with FD return.

Pls advise a best option.

I know there is nothing comes with 100% risk free but i am looking for something reasonable

FD can be from couple of weeks to 5+ years, so generalizing wont make sense.
If you want 90-180 day type return use liquid funds, something like 1 year is money-market fund and long-term are Gilt funds.

Check in Z pledge list first to be sure that the instrument is accepted.
