Sebi has launched 'Demat 2.0', a pilot project for tokenisation of corporate bonds in India that enables instant atomic settlement and integrates with RBI's wholesale CBDC, marking India as the first country to issue corporate bonds natively on a distributed ledger with CBDC settlement.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must understand that India's move to tokenise corporate bonds on an officially regulated platform linked with RBI's digital currency opens a new compliant market for instant-settlement bond products you can now build on or use.
