tPara"> Nabard Capital Gains Bonds are unsecured in nature. So, you cannot be fully assured of recovering your full investment.

An unsecured bond means that in the rare case of the company issuing the bonds going under, you cannot sell the company's assets to recover your investments. Also, the value of the bond is subject to market forces. If you want to sell it, and the value of the bond is lower than what you purchased it for, chances are you may not get the full principal sum back. However, since the issuers of these bonds are government-owned enterprises, such investments are deemed to be safe.
