Adani Green Energy (UP) Ltd, Prayatna Developers Pvt Ltd, and Parampujya Solar Energy Pvt Ltd, all of which have 930 MW of operational solar power projects, have raised Rs 612.30 crore through their maiden domestic bond issuance on a private placement basis, according to a statement released by the company on Friday.
The rated, listed, secured, redeemable, non-convertible debentures (NCDs) in various series, each with a face value of Rs 10,00,000, have an average annualised coupon rate of 7.83 percent p.a. (fixed) and a duration of up to 12 years, according to the statement.
The NCD profits would be used to partially repay an existing rupee term loan at a higher interest rate. CRISIL Limited has assigned the NCDs an AA/Stable rating, while India Ratings has assigned an AA(CE)/Stable rating. The NCDs would be listed on BSE Limited's Wholesale Debt market segment.

"We are encouraged by the robust support from the finance community, which recognises the strength of the Company's business model and our capital management approach. We could manage this fund raising at favorable terms. This puts the Company on a more solid platform for long-term growth," he added.
