Key Features ofthe Refinancing Plan
1. Lead Consortium: Kotak Mahindra Bank, which led a consortium comprising prominent institutions such as Nomura Capital, Aditya Birla Capital, and STCI. This collaboration has been pivotal in securing Rs. 1,000 crores at highly favorable terms, reflecting the confidence of these institutions in TARC's strategic direction and financial acumen besides the inherent merit of its Projects, their ongoing Sales and timely execution of construction activities.
2. Favorable Borrowing Cost: The new borrowing cost at 12.75% p.a. will significantly enhance TARC's cash flows, facilitating substantial savings. The reduction in interest cost will provide the Company with the financial flexibility necessary for growth and expansion.
