Capri Global set to debut in dollar debt market, say bankers

will become the latest ​entity to debut in the foreign currency ‌debt market, with plans to raise ​funds through US dollar denominated ⁠bonds, two merchant bankers said on Monday.

The non-banking finance company will aim to raise ‌funds through bonds with a maturity of three years and three ‌months and has lined up calls ‌with ⁠investors on Tuesday.

The company should ⁠finalise the pricing on the issue before the end of this week, the bankers added.

The bankers ​requested anonymity as ‌they are not authorised to speak to media. Capri Global Capital did not reply to a Reuters email seeking comment.

“The ‌company may target around $300 million, ​but if the demand is strong, we could not rule out ⁠a benchmark size issue of $500 million,” one of the bankers said.

In April, Capri Global ‌Capital had raised ₹5 billion ($53.03 million) through a public issue of debt.



Earlier this financial year, Managing Director Rajesh Sharma had said the company, which has assets under management of around ₹300 ‌billion ($3.18 billion), will look to increase the ​share of capital market borrowings on its books and will focus ⁠more on bond issuances this year.

Currently, capital ⁠markets comprise around 20% of the company’s total borrowings, and Capri ‌aims to raise that share to around 40%-50%, the MD had added. ($1 = 94.3100 ​Indian rupees)
