Indian firms tap bond market for acquisitions on mutual fund demand

Indian companies are increasingly turning to the domestic bond market to finance acquisitions, planning to raise over $2 billion in the coming months, driven by mutual fund demand. This shift is fueled by ample mutual fund capital, attractive pricing, and reduced corporate bond yields, which now range between 6.97% and 7.05%. The trend is leading to a record high in corporate bond sales, overtaking foreign lenders’ dominance due to the high cost of offshore issuances.
