Should you invest in #SREI secured Non-Convertible Bonds?
It is a good debt investment option with high yield and attractive tenor spread of 400 days, 3 years and 5 years. #NCDs are being offered by reputed infra-finance company, having a minimum investment requirement of Rs. 10, 000. The NCDs are secured, backed by assets, which means incase of default/ non-payment, assets can be liquidated to repay the debts.
The #coupon rate across segment is expected to be just above 1.5- 2 % from any bank FDs at this point of time. While a bank FD is offering 7.5% interest on yearly deposit, 400 days option is giving a good 1.5% extra return. Also, after a rough patch, the financial health of the company has improved thus interest payment ability. Brickworks has given it a thumbs up by giving it notch higher Rating of AA+ in the latest issue.
A person with moderate risk profile can invest a part of fixed income portfolio in this issue. Person in lower tax bracket will get to see higher return.
Risks in this issue –
· NBFC Business is particularly vulnerable to volatility in interest rates
· SREI is in infrastructure sector, which has seen lull for over five years
· Any increase in the levels of non-performing assets in loan portfolio, for any reason whatsoever, would adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition
· SREI derive majority/substantial of our revenues from our top 20 borrowers. Inability to maintain relationship with such borrower or any default and non-payment in future or credit losses of our single borrower or group exposure where they have a substantial exposure could materially and adversely affect business, future financial performance and results of operations
