This is likely to help it raise ¤1 billion via this bond. The money would be used to repay and refinance existing debt, the company has said. It had raised euro 750 mn in December from these notes.
These will have open market listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
“Bharti Airtel International (Netherlands) BV, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bharti Airtel Ltd, has approached investors for the re-opening of euro 750-mn, four per cent, senior notes due December 10, 2018,” stated the company.
The notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Bharti Airtel.
This is the first foreign currency bond issuance out of India in 2014 and the largest euro bond issuance out of India.
The notes have been priced at 275 basis points over the curve-adjusted five-year euor mid-swap, with a fixed coupon of four per cent per annum.
