- NCDs have face value of ₹1,00,000, issued via electronic bidding.

The full read
Finkurve Financial Services is doubling down on debt. Less than a month after clearing a ₹100 crore NCD plan, the board will on June 24 consider a second ₹50 crore NCD issuance, this one representing about 5% of its ₹996 crore market cap. The company has guided for 40-50% AUM growth in FY27 and explicitly ruled out equity dilution, making NCDs the chosen fuel. At a debt/equity ratio of 1.15, the balance sheet can take more borrowing, but the cost of capital matters. The new proposal is preliminary; approval on June 24 would make it live. For now, the market waits.
Questions answered
- Why is Finkurve raising additional NCDs?
- To fund its aggressive AUM growth target of 40-50% for FY27. Management has ruled out equity dilution, making debt the primary growth vehicle.
- How does this ₹50 crore proposal differ from the earlier ₹100 crore NCD plan?
- It is a separate proposal. The ₹100 crore plan was approved earlier this month; the ₹50 crore plan will be considered by the board on June 24. Both are NCDs on private placement with ₹1,00,000 face value.
- Is the ₹50 crore NCD issuance final?
- No, it is a proposal to be considered at the board meeting. Final approval is pending.
- What is the potential impact on Finkurve's leverage?
- With a current debt/equity ratio of 1.15, additional debt of ₹50 crore would increase it modestly. The company's trailing ROE of 8.4% suggests room to absorb higher interest costs if deployed profitably.
