Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications of Sovereign Gold Bonds issued by the RBI. Redeeming bonds at maturity is generally tax-exempt. However, selling bonds before maturity results in taxable capital gains, with a notable indexation benefit available as per Section 47(viic) and proviso 4 to Section 48.

If you hold the bonds until maturity and get the invested money back on redemption of bonds then capital gain arising therefrom will be not taxable(or simply say exempt)

however if you sell it before redemption then capital gain will be taxable and you will also get indexation benefit on such bond.
usually bonds do not have indexation benefit but this gold bond has.

this is provided in 47(viic) and proviso to 48
Thankyou
