These instruments exist because the corporate lifecycle creates situations that don't fit neatly into a standard loan. A promoter buying out a co-investor. A bridge before an IPO. A mezzanine layer to boost returns. We know which instrument fits which situation.
Subordinated debt sitting between senior debt and equity. Higher yield for the lender, preserves equity for the promoter.
Short-term, high-conviction funding to bridge specific events — asset sale, equity raise, refinancing close.
NCDs placed with mutual funds, insurance companies, and HNIs. Efficient capital market access for ₹25Cr+ requirements.
Loans against promoter shareholding for buyouts, personal liquidity, or group-level rebalancing.
Construction finance, project finance, and mezzanine for developers. Structured around project cash flows.
Family offices, credit funds, AIFs, and NBFCs that can move faster and with more flexibility than banks.
Mezzanine is appropriate when: (1) you need more capital than banks will lend senior debt, (2) you want to avoid equity dilution, or (3) the transaction is complex enough that traditional lenders won't engage. It's priced higher than senior debt but significantly cheaper than giving up equity. For growth companies and PE-backed businesses, mezzanine is a standard part of the capital stack.
For ₹25Cr+ NCDs, we prepare an information memorandum, structure the instrument (coupon, tenor, security), and approach qualified institutional buyers — mutual funds, family offices, insurance companies. The process takes 4–8 weeks from mandate to close. Coupon is fixed at placement and there's no bank relationship to manage post-close.
Yes — Loan Against Shares (LAS) or Promoter Funding is a recognised product offered by NBFCs and some banks. LTV typically ranges from 50–70% of the share value. We structure these facilities to minimise margin call risk and ensure the promoter retains voting control. The documentation and compliance aspects need careful attention, and we manage all of it.
