Realty firm Parsvnath Developers has cleared a debt of Rs 60 crore to Essel Finance and some other investors through redemption of non-convertible debentures (NCDs). "We have cleared the NCDs of Essel Finance and their investors of Rs 60 crore," Parsvnath Developers Chairman Pradeep Jain said. Parsvnath Developers has made premature redemption of 6,000 NCDs, secured freely transferable non-marketable and non convertible debentures - Series XII & Series XIII NCDs by making full payment of principal amount and interest thereon to the concerned debenture holders, it had said in a regulatory filing yesterday. Accordingly, the NCDs stand fully redeemed. Parsvnath has been raising funds through NCDs to prepay its costlier debt, which currently stands at about Rs 1,200 crore.
