Bajaj Finance shares in focus as company allots secured redeemable non-convertible debentures via private placement
Why did Bajaj Finance Ltd shares jump today?
Bajaj Finance Ltd shares rose 0.52% to trade at ₹958.95 on Friday at 12:46 PM, drawing investor attention after the company announced the allotment of secured redeemable non-convertible debentures (NCDs) on a private placement basis. The move was disclosed to the stock exchanges in a regulatory filing dated 9 October 2026, in compliance with SEBI's Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015.
According to the filing, the Debenture Allotment Committee of the company allotted 51,000 NCDs at a face value of ₹1 lakh per NCD, aggregating to approximately ₹510.86 crore — a figure that includes the discount and accrued interest on the instruments. The debentures carry a residual tenure of 1,127 days, with the date of allotment set as 9 October 2026 and the maturity date falling on 9 November 2029. The debentures carry the ISIN INE296A07UD5 and are proposed to be listed on the Wholesale Debt Market Segment of BSE Limited.
The issuance of NCDs is a common way for financial companies like Bajaj Finance to raise debt capital for lending and other business operations without diluting equity. The successful allotment of such a significant issue signals strong institutional interest in the company's creditworthiness and growth prospects, which appears to have boosted investor sentiment and contributed to the uptick in the stock price during Friday's trading session.
