SP Group Bonds Trade at Premium Amid Tata Sons Stake Sale Plans
Deutsche Bank and other investors are offering rupee-denominated bonds of Shapoorji Pallonji Group's Eqyizen Investment at a premium, influenced by the group's plan to sell part of its stake in Tata Sons worth ₹25,000 crore. Eqyizen had raised ₹21,350 crore through three-year zero-coupon bonds at an 18.95% yield in July, now offered at around 18.70%-18.75%. The bonds are secured by SP Group's Tata Sons stake. SP Group faces over ₹500 billion in high-interest debt and plans to seek an extension on a ₹35 billion payment due September 30.
