Historic Funding for Shapoorji Pallonji Group
In a landmark financial arrangement, the Shapoorji Pallonji Group is set to receive 75% of a $3.3 billion fund from five prestigious private credit funds, including Davidson Kempner Capital Management, Cerberus Capital Management, and Ares Management Corp. This marks India's largest domestic currency private debt arrangement, with participation from 15 investors expected to complete by early April.

Strategic Financial Moves
The funds, orchestrated by Evangelos Ventures, will be utilized to refinance existing debt against the group's 18.4% stake in Tata Sons. The rupee-denominated bonds, offering a high-teens interest rate and a 3.5-year tenure, are set to be listed on the BSE, signaling a robust financial strategy amidst challenging times.
Overcoming Challenges
Despite previous setbacks, including an unsuccessful attempt to raise Rs 20,000 crore from Power Finance Corporation, the Shapoorji Pallonji Group is making significant strides in stabilizing its financial health. The group's proactive approach in addressing high-cost construction projects and working capital constraints showcases resilience and strategic foresight.
