It has been 8 years since the RH Patil Committee made its recommendations for the development of a corporate bond market in India. Some progress has been made on the implementation these recommendations, while some other constraints remain.

The forum included regulators, government officials, investors and market intermediaries. Aspects covered included the perspectives of the Government, SEBI, RBI, Issuers, Investors, Intermediaries, Bank-loans versus Bonds, Taxation and the Companies Act. Based on the discussions, matters that can be addressed in the short-term need to be highlighted and prioritized.
