  1. Secured NCD with high credit rating etc phrases have absolutely no meaning when we see literally what happened to the fate of secured NCD holdes in DHFL. With the tenure period 60 months as minimum, anything detrimental to investors can happen!

  2. We have this Company previous NCDS ,paying interest in time . Quoted below issue price in Deep Covid Crisis period(now quoting above) indicates it is not as Strong as L&T finance.

  3. Thank you Suresh for all this latest information regarding new NCDs. The interest rates are good but I think there are two drawbacks in this scheme :

    1) The options are few , three only and only one is providing monthly returns.

    2) The tenure is too long. There are no two or three year options.

    Thanks again for your articles.
