Bonds are cashed in by cancelling some or all of the units at their bid value. These withdrawals or encashment have charges and conditions applied to them depending on the time when encashed, amount encashed and scheme invested in. Regular withdrawals can be made from a bond by encashing the same on a regular basis. Fixed amounts can be set monthly, quarterly, half yearly, annually that will be withdrawn. If funds are encashed to soon a encashment charge is normally applied which is mentioned in the terms and conditions. Early withdrawals may end up giving you lesser money then you invested and withdrawing large sums at regular intervals may negate the effect of compounding interest.
