Northern Arc Capital to Raise Rs 5,000 Crore via NCDs; Approves FY26 Audited Results
Northern Arc Capital's board has approved the audited financial results for the quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. A major highlight is the board's proposal to raise up to Rs 5,000 crore through the issuance of Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs) on a private placement basis, subject to shareholder approval. The auditors provided an unmodified opinion but noted a change in accounting for Expected Credit Loss (ECL) to include Default Loss Guarantee (DLG) benefits following RBI's February 2026 amendment. This change makes the current year's credit loss figures not strictly comparable with the previous year.
Key Highlights
Board approved a massive fundraise of up to Rs 5,000 crore through Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs).
Audited standalone and consolidated financial results for FY26 were approved with an unmodified audit opinion.
Accounting for Expected Credit Loss (ECL) now includes DLG benefits as per new RBI guidelines issued in Feb 2026.
The board meeting lasted over four hours, concluding with amendments to the UPSI fair disclosure code.
The proposed NCD issuance will be executed in one or more tranches following shareholder approval at the AGM.
👀 What to Watch
Investors should view the Rs 5,000 crore fundraise plan as a strong signal for growth expansion. However, pay close attention to the detailed financial notes regarding ECL adjustments to understand the underlying asset quality trends.
