Re: Nominee

If the money from which the bonds were purchased was earned by your grandfather with his own efforts, then you'll get the money.

Re: Nominee

As a Nominee you are entitled to receive the RBI Bonds but do not become its owner, just being its nominee.

Your only hold in trust for others.

All eligble persons may own it.
