“We have been zeroing in on the coupon we would offer. It should be 8.3-8.4 per cent. Now that government yields are falling, we are deciding on what to offer to our investors,” he said. The yields on 10-year government bonds have fallen to 8.32 per cent to 8.5 per cent since December 14.
The interest will be offered on an annual basis. PFC had raised ~967 crore via tax-free infrastructure bonds in the first tranche. The company can raise a total of ~5,000 crore through the instrument.

The bids would be accepted till last week of January, after which, we would select the fund manager,” he said. The firm is looking for a domestic fund manager to set up a private equity fund to finance projects by way of equity financing.
