Mumbai, Jul 7 (IBNS): Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL), a subsidiary of Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and the first telecom operator to hold pan India Unified License, on Thursday, issued Rs 2,000 crore of 5-year Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs), bearing a coupon of 8.32% per annum, payable annually.

The issue has been assigned a rating of AAA by CRISIL and ICRA.

The proceeds of the issuance shall be utilized by RJIL for rolling out a state-of-the-art digital services business in India.

RJIL is the first issuer outside the financial services industry in India, to raise funds digitally through the EBP route.

This is also the largest debt issuance in the Indian market by any issuer since the electronic bidding platform has been mandated by SEBI for private placement of debt, effective July 1, 2016.

The transaction was fully subscribed within minutes of opening and was eventually over-subscribed with a total book size in excess of Rs 3500 crores, Reliance Jio said.

Key investors include the prominent asset management companies and banks.

“We are overwhelmed by the response that we have received for our maiden issuance on the BSE-BOND platform. It reinforces the faith investors have in our next generation

digital services business. The launch of the EBP platform is a significant step towards the development of market infrastructure for Indian Corporate Bond market. It will make the debt issuance process significantly more smooth and transparent for issuers as well as investors” said Soumyo Dutta, Treasurer, Reliance Industries Limited.
