The rate offered by Manappuram Finance NCD is attrac¬tive and comparable to other NCDs offerings, the rating given by CARE is also positive. However the recently the company faced few issues in terms of deficiencies found by RBI in terms of routine inspection and also the promoters have pledged 20% of their total shares with Religare. Investors with a penchant of risk can consider investment in Mannapuram Finance NCD.

Ishita,you are right and precautions are needed while investing in any kind of NCDs or FDs.
But do not see any immediate threat for company.Promoters have pledged 20% shares but I think it is a common practice in this industry.

No.
