Adani Group Plans $2.5 Billion Offshore Loan to Refinance Cement Firm Debt
The Adani Group plans to raise $2.5 billion through offshore loans to refinance debt from acquiring two Indian cement firms, marking India's largest offshore loan this year. The group aims to secure $1.5 billion via an 18-24 month bridge loan through a Mauritius-based entity and $1 billion through a five-year loan under the Reserve Bank of India's external commercial borrowing window. The bridge loan will later be refinanced with rupee-denominated loans from domestic banks, with pricing linked to the US Secured Overnight Financing Rate.
