Bond Option is a contract between seller and buyer to be executed in the future at a predefined time and price (irrespective of current market price). A call option gives the buyer the right to buy the bonds but does not create an obligation on either party to execute the option. A put option provides the seller with the right to sell the bonds but does not create an obligation on either party to complete the option. Bonds with embedded call options are called callable bonds, and Bonds with embedded puttable options are called puttable options.
