Karan Adani, CEO and Whole-Time Director of APSEZ, commented, “Current issuance is part of our capital management program to extend debt maturity and refinance debt well in advance of maturity.

The offering received tremendous participation from marquee investors across key markets and geographies which enabled the order book to build around 6x leading to tightening of spreads and pricing under fair value, an official statement said.
APSEZ shares closed at ₹520.30, up 0.28 per cent on NSE Thursday.
