Should you invest in  Muthoot Finance NCD of Feb 2019?

after all, said and done, is it good to invest in Muthoot finance NCD of Feb 2019

To get the answer, you can refer our post in the regard

  1. Though Muthoot finance is offering secured Nonconvertible debentures, we have seen that NBFC companies have delayed the interest payment due to the liquidity crunch. Do you still want to invest in such NCD then?
  2. The tenure for the NCD is 24 months, 38 months and 60 months. do you wish to park your money for 5 years? we do not know how the company would perform in the 5 years, hence you should consider investing for short term non-convertible debentures
  3. Muthoot Finance NCD offers to yield up to 10% interest per annum, however, is high risk. If you have a high-risk appetite, investing in some of the low risk and high return mutual fund may be one of the good investment options that can fetch you 12% to 15% annualized returns.

Moving on to the conclusion

Muthoot finance is all set to propose high-interest NCD for the investors. Secured NCD are somewhat better as compared to the unsecured.

if you are a high-risk taker and willing to invest in such companies even after IL&FS scam, you can consider investing in such companies.
