      If SGBs are premature after a minimum lock-in period of 5 years from the date of purchase but before its maturity, the sale proceeds will be subjected to Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) where the tax rate is 20% plus surcharge & cess subject to indexation benefits. Indexation benefit means recalculation of purchase price taking effect of inflation which ultimately reduces your tax payable on gains arising on the sale of SGBs.

      long-term capital gains will be taxed at 20% with an indexation benefit if the SGB is redeemed after the lock-in period of 5 years but before the maturity period of 8 years. Interest earned on SGBs is taxable as income from other sources, whereas TDS does not apply to bonds.

      Sovereign gold bonds offer tax-free returns after eight years. The redemption value is exempted from tax if the investor remains invested for the entire tenure. In addition to that, SGBs also receive 2.5 percent interest every year, increasing your return on investment.

      After 3 years (Long Term Capital Gain or LTCG)-If you sell the bonds after 3 years but before maturity, then the such capital gain will be taxed at 20% with indexation. However, if you are not availing of the indexation benefit, then LTCG will be taxed at a flat rate of 10%.

      This is a very good question and a difficult one to answer. The answer I gave probably has some legal ramifications. It could be that the government will tax the interest you earn on your gold in 5 years. If this is the case, then it depends on what interest rate they charge you. Assuming you are getting a high enough rate, that would not make much difference to you. In addition, if they say your gold is already spent, then they cannot tax it after 5 years regardless of how long they have had possession of it.
