DLF rental arm raises Rs 2,500 cr in two LRDs

04 Mar 2021 CW Team

Real estate developer DLF's rental arm DLF Cyber City Developers has raised around Rs 2,500 crore through two lease rental discounting (LRD) transactions.

The developer bagged the fund against two rental assets at DLF Cyber City in Gurgaon. The two transactions include one for Rs 2,400 crore that the company raised from State Bank of India (SBI) in October last year at an interest of 7.35% for a tenure of 15 years and the last transaction at a 6.7% interest rate.

Companies that operate rental assets raise money from banks through LRDs using rental receipts as collateral. The banks take into account the company's long term rental income, and the loan repayment is made using the rental income.
