Reliance Industries Raises 12,000 Crore via 10-Year Bond with SBI Leading Demand
Reliance Industries completed a 12,000-crore (approximately $1.35 billion) 10-year bond sale with a 7.9% coupon rate, attracting strong demand led by State Bank of India, which purchased nearly 40% of the issue. The bonds received a top AAA rating, indicating low default risk. This issuance contrasts with other companies like Sagarmala Finance and Sidbi, which canceled or withdrew bond sales due to higher borrowing costs and low participation amid rising interest rates in India’s debt market.
