Non-Convertible Debentures are an attractive proposition with high-interest rates. However, with the pessimism around non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) in the recent past after IL&FS episode, one can be skeptical about putting money in NCDs.

Things to note
- Before you invest in an NCD issue, it is good to do a background check on the company issuing it and their reason for raising the said amount.
- Do not entirely rely on the credit rating. In the recent past, we have seen the credit ratings cannot be entirely trusted and can be changed at any time. Since the tenure is significant, it is best to do your own research.
- NCDs are nothing like bank FDs. Though secured, the return of the principal amount you invested will depend upon the company's financials.
- Take a calculated risk and do not park a large portion of your investments in NCDs.
