Shriram City Union Finance NCD Issue opens November 25

Effective Yields ranging from 12.27% pa to 14.46% pa

Mumbai, November 21, 2013: Leading retail-financing NBFC Shriram City Union Finance Ltd. proposes to open on November 25, 2013, a public issue of Non-convertible Debentures (“NCDs”) of Rs. 100 Crores (with an option to retain oversubscription to the extent of another Rs. 100 Crores).

Options of investment tenors are three, four and five years, with coupons of 11% p.a., 11.25% p.a. and 11.50% p.a. respectively for individual investors. Interest payment options comprise both Annual and Cumulative, with the latter providing effective yields of 12.27% p.a., 13.30% p.a. and 14.46% p.a. over three, four and five years respectively. Also on offer is a five-year structured NCD carrying a coupon of 11.50% p.a. with an annual interest payout.

Of the Issue size, 80% of the issue is reserved for individuals; 40% being earmarked for retail investors (those investing in less than Rs. 5 Lacs) and 40% for High Networth Individuals (HNIs).
The NCDs are proposed to be listed on BSE and NSE, and hence may be traded.

The Issue offers very attractive yields to the investing public, especially the category of retail investors who have for long formed the core of Shriram City’s partners in success. The proposed public issue by Shriram City follows previous successful forays in the years 2011 and 2012. With the current issue, the company expects to mop up Rs. 100 Crores (with an option to retain oversubscription to the extent of another Rs. 100 Crores) and thereby deepen its reach into the country’s retail investor base.
