The statement also said that three batches will be issued from July 10 to 23 onwards with the interest rate to be calculated as the date and paid annually. But the issuance will be suspended if the interest rate increases during this period.
These bonds are only open to individual investors, it said.
Electronic savings bonds are considered to be more convenient than other types of bonds as interests can be paid directly through the investor's account.
