CAPITAL GAIN TAX FOR DEBT SCHEMES:
LTCG - Taxed @ 20% (with Indexation) or 10% (without Indexation) – Plus applicable surcharge and Cess.
STCG - Taxed at the normal rate of tax as applicable to the assessee.

Dear Abhishek,
there is no taxability of the principal amount. Principal amount is the base to arrive at the profits or losses on your investments.
No taxing on principal amount at all.
