Expert Solution
Introduction

Registered bondholders may cash in their bonds at maturity by presenting their bond certificates, which have been legally discharged (by signing the back of the bonds with a Revenue Stamp of Re. 1/-). One month previous to the presumed date of encashment / redemption is the record date for redemption.
