I did receive first payment of interest for period between strat date and closing date, but 1st monthly installment of interest, I have not received yet. Can you please tell, me what is pay out date for monthly interest of this NCD?.
Hi Ram, This would depend on the record date. If you have received the NCD, it would indicate the same. What is the record date ?
