How to Buy Government Securities (G-Secs) via RBI Retail Direct

Subject: Static GK (General Knowledge)

Book: Indian Money Knowledge

RBI Retail Direct provides a direct platform for individual investors to purchase government bonds or treasury bills, bypassing intermediaries. Investors earn fixed interest, considered safer compared to corporate debt. However, yields may be relatively modest, and resale on secondary markets can be subject to demand fluctuations. Students exploring stable, low-risk avenues might test small amounts in G-Secs, blending them into a broader portfolio strategy for reliable returns and capital preservation.
