The securities will be allocated on a first come-first served basis. QIBs and NIIs will be allocated 10 per cent each of the total issue size and HNIs and retail investors will be allocated 40 per cent each.
“There is an opportunity to lock in deposits at high rates and even earn a capital appreciation in the seven-year and 10-year options, as and when interest rates go down,” said Anup Bhaiya, MD, Money Honey Financial Services.
Some analysts say one can allocate 10 per cent of the debt portfolio in this NCD. To subscribe to the issue, the process is similar to that of IPO. The issue will close on May 5. The base size is Rs 100 crore with the greenshoe option of Rs 900 crore. In total, IndiGrid plans to issue 10,000,000 NCDs of face value of Rs 1,000 each. The coupon rate or yield on the issue for HNIs and retail investors will be 6.75 per cent for 3 years tenure, 7.6 per cent for 5 years, 7.9 per cent for 7 years and 8.2 per cent for 10 years.
“The above NCDs would be listed on the stock exchanges and, hence, depending on the demand the price per NCD may fluctuate in the secondary market. However, if you hold these NCDs till maturity, the redemption value would be Rs 1,000 per NCD for Series I,II,III,IV, V, VI irrespective of the price fluctuation in the secondary market,” said ICICI Securities.
