Following the approval by Raymond Limited’s committee of directors, the business will proceed to raise funds through private placement of non-convertible debentures. These are tools used by companies to raise long-term funds through a public issue.
 
“The debentures are proposed to be listed on the Wholesale Debt Market segment of the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd,” said the business in a statement, the Press Trust of India reported. 

For the sale, Raymond has allotted 400 secured listed rated redeemable non-convertible debentures with a face value of Rs 10,000 each at par, according to regulatory filings accessed by the Press Trust of India.
 
The move comes after Raymond reported a consolidated net loss of Rs 137 crore ($18.5 million) in the second quarter of its financial year, which ended in September, 2020. In the same time period a year before, it had reported a profit of Rs 86 crore. 
 
The business had been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, especially during the pan-India lockdown when its textiles factories were shut. This was the major contributor to Raymond’s net loss in the previous quarter.
