<h1>Invest in Gold Without Storage Risks: Sovereign Gold Bonds by RBI Offer Safe, Tradable Alternative for Individuals and Institutions.</h1> The Sovereign Gold Bond (SGB) Scheme, issued by the Reserve Bank of India on behalf of the Government of India, offers a non-physical gold investment alternative. Investors purchase bonds in cash, redeemable in cash at maturity, with benefits including protection of gold quantity, elimination of storage risks, and periodic interest. Eligible investors include individuals, trusts, and institutions, with a minimum investment of two grams and a maximum of 500 grams per fiscal year. SGBs are tradable, can be used as loan collateral, and are subject to capital gains tax similar to physical gold, though interest is taxable.
