Embassy Office Parks REIT (Embassy REIT) priced and allotted Rs 300 crore in rupee-denominated, listed, rated, secured, redeemable, transferable non-convertible debentures (NCDs) with a 5-year term through a private placement.

This is a significant step forward in Embassy REIT's ongoing efforts to diversify our debt investor base, as well as a continuation of our trend of lower debt costs, according to Aravind Maiya, the company's chief financial officer.

The debenture committee of the board of directors of the manager to Embassy REIT approved an issue of NCDs for a principal aggregate amount of up to Rs 300 crore on 2nd September 2021, and the debenture committee of the board of directors of the manager to Embassy REIT approved the allotment of these NCDs at a 6.80% quarterly coupon earlier today.

These NCDs have been assigned a AAA/Stable rating by the rating agency CRISIL.

The funds will be used to refinance existing construction finance debt, resulting in a 110 basis point positive refinance spread, according to the company.

Morgan Stanley and HSBC functioned as arrangers on the private placement, with Talwar Thakore and Associates acting as legal counsel.
