BCP Topco IX Pte. Ltd, the promoter of Mphasis holding 30.55% stake (5,82,99,642 shares), has refinanced its existing loan facility. The 2021 Facility of USD 1.1 billion has been repaid in full and replaced with a new 2026 Facility of USD 550 million. As part of this refinancing, the old encumbrance was released and a new direct pledge was created over 100% of the promoter's shareholding in Mphasis. Notably, while the 2021 encumbrance was indirect (pledge over borrower shares held by parent), the 2026 encumbrance is a direct pledge on Mphasis equity shares. The pledged shares are worth INR 121.45 billion against a loan of INR 52.76 billion, providing a security cover ratio of 2.302x.
The 100% encumbrance of the promoter's 30.55% stake indicates high leverage on the controlling shareholder. While the refinancing reduces debt quantum, direct pledging of Mphasis shares increases risk for minority shareholders if loan covenants are breached.
