Poonawalla Fincorp is exercising the call option on 30 perpetual debentures totalling Rs 3 crore (Rs 10 lakh each), privately placed in September 2016 at a 12.10 percent annual coupon. RBI approval for the redemption has been received. Record date is August 25, 2026, and full redemption along with accrued interest is scheduled for September 9, 2026. After this redemption, the debentures will be fully extinguished. The instrument currently carries a CARE AA+ Stable rating, an upgrade from the original BWR AA- assigned by Brickwork.
Small planned debenture redemption with RBI approval; rating upgrade to CARE AA+ signals stronger credit profile. Largely neutral to marginally positive for shareholders.
