 "Jio Credit raises ₹1,030 crore through 3-year bonds at 7.08% cut-off")
Jio Credit, the non-banking finance arm and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jio Financial Services, on Tuesday raised ₹1,030 crore through bonds maturing in three years at a cut off 7.08 per cent, sources said.
The issuance had a base size of ₹1,000 crore with a green shoe option of ₹500 crore. However, the lender did not raise the full amount, as the yields were slightly higher than the level they were comfortable with for the entire offering, sources added.
Earlier this month, Jio Credit had raised ₹1,000 crore through maiden bond issuance, selling bonds maturing in two years and 10 months at a cut-off yield of 7.19 per cent. The issue included a base size of ₹500 crore and a greenshoe option of ₹500 crore.
The company, in March, completed its maiden commercial paper issuance, raising ₹1,000 crore at a yield of 7.80 per cent by selling commercial papers with a tenure of three months.
