Sources directly involved in the transaction explains that RMZ Corp has signed a term-sheet with Qatar Investment Co to raise around USD 300 million at the special purpose vehicle (SPV) level. This could translate to a 25-percent of stake in the SPV.
The funds would be a combination of both debt and equity with a breakup of around USD 120 million in equity and USD 180 million in debt.
The SPV itself would undertake around 8-9 commercial projects spread across Bangalore, Chennai and Pune and will include around 2 crore sqft of total developed area.
