Gurugram-based realty developer Signature Global Ltd on Tuesday said it has raised Rs 875 crore from the World Bank’s lending arm, International Finance Corporation (IFC), through the issuance of non-convertible debentures (NCDs). The company said the funds will be used to develop housing projects and retire high-cost debt, strengthening its balance sheet and supporting its expansion into green housing.
With this, Signature Global becomes the first Indian residential real estate company to receive funding from IFC, reflecting international investors’ growing confidence in India’s mid-income housing segment.
Highlighting the company’s commitment to sustainability, Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder and Chairman of Signature Global (India) Ltd, said, “Ever since our inception, we have focused on key pillars of customer satisfaction, delivery and transparency. Reposing of faith by an institution of repute like IFC is a testimony of our right approach and direction. We are determined to take this journey forward and will utilise the proceeds for development of mid-income housing, particularly for ESG-aligned projects.”
Aggarwal added that the company is focusing on environmentally sustainable projects and ensuring that all future developments meet ESG compliance standards.
Signature Global said it is confident of achieving its sales bookings target of Rs 12,500 crore for FY25, supported by a launch pipeline worth Rs 14,000 crore over the next five months. The company plans to launch two new projects in Dwarka and Gurugram, including its ongoing ‘Dakshin’ project in Gurugram.
Last fiscal, the developer recorded Rs 10,290 crore in property sales, making it the fifth-largest listed realty firm in India by bookings.
