Explanation:

A callable bond is also called a redeemable bond. It a debt instrument that the issuer may decide to call or redeem before the maturity date.

This is used by bond issuers to have a cheaper cost of borrowing funds.

For example when interests are low the issuer can buy back his bonds at a lower cost this reducing his debt burden.

So callable bonds are structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call or redemption.
