Sovereign Gold Bond

Sovereign Gold Bond (SGB) is also a good option to invest in pure gold. SGBs are issued by the Government of India at regular intervals at the current price of gold. The maturity of SGB is eight years. Whereas, the lock-in period is five years. This means you can sell the bond after five years. But, keep in mind that, if you have retained the SGB till maturity, you will not have to pay any capital gains tax on the investment. At the same time, you will get 2.5 percent annual interest, which will be paid every six months. The amount of gold the investor invests in SGB remains safe.
