Tata Group Infrastructure Units Eye Bond Market Return

Jun 9, 07:18 1,818 0

After a fifteen-month hiatus from corporate debt markets, two key Tata Group infrastructure units are preparing to raise capital as borrowing costs stabilize. The move follows the Reserve Bank of India’s decision to maintain existing policy rates, which triggered a notable decline in corporate bond yields across the country.

Tata Steel intends to secure 30 billion rupees through a five-year bond issuance, while Tata Projects is exploring a funding round between 5 billion and 10 billion rupees using three-year and five-year instruments. Merchant bankers familiar with the strategy noted that both entities are monitoring the market for further yield compression before finalizing their launch dates.

Market conditions have improved significantly since the central bank's recent policy announcement. Prior to that decision, yields on top-tier AAA-rated corporate debt had climbed above 8%, reaching levels not seen since early 2019. Those figures have since retreated by approximately 50 basis points, providing a more favorable environment for issuers. Tata Steel, which currently carries over 150 billion rupees in outstanding debt, faces a 10-billion-rupee maturity obligation in October, though the company stated it has no imminent issuance plans.
