  6. Hi Suresh,

    I have invested in this NCD and I have been getting the interest on the 1st of each month till May 2017. However, I have not received the interest in June 2017. The value of the NCD has fallen by about 15% from 5000 (Face Value) to 4250. The share price of DS Kulkarni has been falling (lower circuit) since last few days. I am not sure if these events are related. Whatare the next steps that as an investor I should take? What is the worst that can happen to my investment? These NCDs are secured.

    1. Hi Krishna, Since these NCDs are secured, you would have less risk. You would definitely get your capital + interest back. You can wait for a month and then file complaint at company affairs, ministry of finance with the details

  7. I want to invest in D’S kulkarni ncd 1.5L .is it safe.which option is best in term of obtaining the interest. Tell me about lock in period of this ncd which minimise the risk more

  8. dear sir,

    without a demat account for investments, just like "d s kulkarni", are there any other good companies  that provide monthly or even quarterly interest payouts, without any lockin periods? if so, do provide me details, or atleast their websites, so that i can find out for myself. request you to please keep this communication as private as possible.

    thanks and regards

     

    leslie dsouza.

    1. Leslie, No. These are NCD bonds where they would be paid at maturity. However you can sell them on stock exchange if there are buyers onthat day. You asked a general question and I don’t think there is any private communication required
