"The secured NCDs proposed to be issued ... have been rated AA+ (Stable) by ICRA.

We have allocated 90 percent of the issue for retail and high-net-worth individual investors who will be getting 0.50 percent per annum more than the interest rate applicable for institutions and corporates," George Alexander Muthoot, managing director of Muthoot Finance said.
