IIFL Finance offers 10.5% interest rate for public on Rs 1000 crore bond issue
Raipur, 6th August 2019 : IIFL Finance, one of India’s largest Non-Banking Financial Companies, will open a public issue of bonds on August 06, 2019, offering interest rate of 10.5% and high degree of safety. Compared to bank fixed deposits of less than 6% per annum, IIFL bonds offer at least 4 percentage points higher to retail investors.

Corporates and Trusts, which are paying only MAT, can also invest in the bonds, especially 15 month tenor, where the rate is very attractive. Given the short term liquidity tightening, the 15 month bonds are well priced.10% interest rate for such entities becomes very attractive on a tax adjusted basis. No other similar instrument gives such returns.
CRISIL has rated the instrument as AA/Stable, which indicates that the instruments are considered to have a high degree of safety for timely servicing of financial obligations and carry very low credit risk.
The IIFL Bonds would be issued at face value of Rs 1,000 and the minimum application size is Rs 10,000 across all categories. The public issue opens on August 06, 2019 and closes on August 30, 2019, with an option of early closure. The allotment will be made on first come first served basis.

The funds raised will help us in expanding our operation in more such areas.”
