The Economic Times Hindi Features EquiRize on Fixed Income, Bonds and Regular-Income Planning
October 11, 2026

EquiRize Securities has been featured on ET Hindi Pathshala in an educational discussion on fixed income, bonds, regular cash flow and the risks investors should assess before investing.

The Economic Times Hindi episode examines how fixed-income investments work and how investors can look beyond familiarity with fixed deposits when evaluating other debt instruments.

Mohit Gupta, Co-Founder, CTO & CPO at EquiRize Securities, contributes insights on balancing return expectations with liquidity requirements, investment horizons and the underlying risks of each instrument.

Fixed income extends beyond fixed deposits

The discussion explains that fixed deposits, government securities and corporate bonds may all fall within the broader fixed-income universe, but they do not offer identical structures, liquidity or risk characteristics.

Investors should understand how an instrument generates cash flow, when the principal is expected to be repaid and whether the investment timeline corresponds with their financial objective.

Regular income requires planning

A regular-income requirement should begin with the investor’s expected expenses, available capital, time horizon and liquidity needs. Selecting an investment solely because it displays a higher yield may leave important risks unexamined.

A portfolio may require a combination of liquidity, predictable cash-flow scheduling and diversification instead of dependence on a single instrument or maturity date.

Credit ratings do not eliminate risk

The episode also addresses a common misconception around highly rated bonds. A credit rating represents an assessment of relative credit risk; it does not make a bond completely risk-free.

Investors should consider the issuer, rating rationale, maturity, security structure, liquidity, interest-rate sensitivity and suitability for their financial goal.
