Reliance Industries (RIL) has banged a deal to raise yet another $1 billion loan from the international market at a time when several firms have shelved their borrowing plans amidst uncertainty in the global market. The company is in discussion with US Exim bank to part fund its $12 billion Jamnagar phase -III expansion project. The funding will depend upon the equipments and services it sources from US firms.

This loan funds will be utilized to retire a part of the existing debt. RIL not only managed to secure 5-year billion dollar term loan, but the syndicated facility had backing of 30 international banks. The loan was raised at 150-175 basis points above LIBOR. Through this deal, RIL would have raised $3.5 billion (Rs 15,750 crore) of debt from the international markets in the last one year. The company had debt of $15 billion against cash reserves of $10 billion as on June 30.

The company has received the Government of India (GoI) approval for its transformational deal with BP. This approval will result in the largest foreign investment in the domestic hydrocarbon sector. BP will take 30% stake in 21 oil & gas production sharing contracts that Reliance Industries operates in India, including the producing KG D6 block. Following the approval, RIL and BP will work together to conclude the deal expeditiously.
