- All-in funding cost versus Mahindra Finance's prior NCD and bank-borrowing costs.
- Quarterly loan-book growth, especially tractors, used vehicles, SME and rural lending.

- Stage-3 assets, collection efficiency, credit costs and restructured-loan metrics.
- Monsoon distribution, rural income indicators, crop prices and tractor/utility-vehicle sales.
- Deploy proceeds toward vehicle, tractor, SME and rural lending rather than holding excess liquidity.
- Use the listed secured NCD issuance as a benchmark for further market borrowings or liability refinancing.
- Increase dealer and Mahindra ecosystem financing programs ahead of key vehicle-sales and agricultural demand cycles.
- Maintain tighter underwriting, collections and collateral monitoring in higher-risk rural and used-vehicle segments.
