We've had no NPAs, plan to keep it that way: Amitabh Banerjee, CMD, IRFC

In a Q&A, Banerjee says the company is unlikely to change its model of leasing to Indian Railways, but is open to financing private projects that have forward or backward linkages with railways

While it may have just been listed on stock exchanges, the Indian Railway Finance Corporation (IRFC) is unlikely to change its business model of financial leasing to the Indian Railways, says the firm's chairman and managing director Amitabh Banerjee. However, the company is open to financing private projects that have forward or backward linkages with railways, Banerjee tells Vinay Umarji. On Friday, IRFC listed overseas bonds worth $750 million under its $4 billion global medium term notes (GMTN) programme on global securities market of India International Exchange at the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) at GIFT City.
