“The present NCD issue is part of our effort to diversify fund-raising programme of the company,” he said.
The proceeds of the issue would be used for its various financing activities, including lending and investments.
In addition, funds would be used to repay the company’s existing debt and to meet its capital expenditure and working capital requirements.
