Yes Bank to Underwrite NCMSL Project’s Debt Pie

10 Mar 2011 Evaluate

Yes Bank has committed to underwrite the entire debt portion of 200 crore sought by National Collateral Management Services (NCMSL), a warehouse services provider, to build 45 warehouses across nine states at a total cost of 300 crore. Apart from this, 100 crore of equity would be raised from existing shareholders through a rights issue and a preferential allotment to International Finance Corporation and Rabo Equity Advisors. The banks has underwritten the entire rupee debt requirement of the warehouse project for NCMSL, with its exposure at 90 crore.

Documentation closure is expected in April and drawdown in June. The interest on the loan spread over nine years and including a moratorium of two years, is expected to work out to 10.5%-11%, or 150-200 basis points over the base rate which is around 9% for most banks. Yes Bank leads a consortium that includes Corporation Bank, Karur Vysya Bank and Development Credit Bank that will finance the debt portion of the project. However, before the loan is disbursed, NCMSL will have to arrange 100 crore equity. 

The money from the banks will be used for the construction of 45 warehouses across Rajasthan, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat. NCMSL manages 42 farm products including perishables like fruits and vegetables across 700 leased warehouses. crackcrack
