Correct Answer: Deep Discount Bonds are issued at a price substantially below the maturity value.


Solution : Answer = Deep Discount Bonds are issued at a price substantially below the maturity value.

These debentures do not carry a specific rate of interest. In order to compensate the investors such debentures are issued at a substantial discount. The difference between the face value and the issue price is the total amount of interest related to the duration of debentures.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
