When & how will I receive my returns?

Returns on your investment are paid monthly and transferred to your bank account on or before the 10th working day of each month. Here’s a detailed overview of when and how you will receive your returns:

Timing of Returns

• Monthly Payments: Returns are paid out monthly.
• Payment Schedule: The returns are transferred to your bank account on or before the 10th working day of each month.
• Receipt Dependent: Payments are subject to the receipt of rents from the tenant.

Mechanism of Returns

1. Form of Returns:

1. • Interest on Debentures: Returns are primarily in the form of interest (coupon rate) on the debentures you hold.
   • Source: This interest is a function of rents generated from the property and interest earned on the security deposit held by the SPV.

2. Calculation:

1. • Rents Generated: Monthly rental income from the property.
   • Interest on Security Deposit: Interest earned on the security deposit associated with the property.

3. Distribution:

1. • Bank Account Transfer: Returns are transferred directly to your verified bank account.

Detailed Steps for Receiving Returns

1. Interest on Debentures

• Monthly Calculation:
  • Rents: The SPV calculates the total rental income received from tenants.
  • Interest on Deposit: Adds any interest earned on the security deposit.
• Interest Rate: The interest rate on debentures is determined based on these calculations.

2. Return Distribution

• Transfer Process:
  • Account Verification: Ensure your bank account details are verified on the PropTory platform.
  • Monthly Transfer: The calculated returns are transferred to your bank account on or before the 10th working day of the month.

Key Points to Remember

• Verification: Ensure your bank account is verified on the PropTory platform for smooth transfer.
• Regular Updates: You can check the status of returns and any updates via your PropTory dashboard.
• Tenant Dependency: Timeliness of returns is dependent on rent receipt from tenants.

Example of Return Calculation

Suppose:

• Property Rent: ₹200,000 per month.
• Security Deposit Interest: ₹10,000 per month.
• Debenture Holding: Your debentures yield an interest rate of 8%.

Return Calculation

1. Total Monthly Income: ₹200,000 (rents) + ₹10,000 (interest) = ₹210,000.
2. Interest on Debentures: 8% of ₹210,000 = ₹16,800.

Distribution

• Bank Transfer: ₹16,800 will be transferred to your bank account on or before the 10th working day of the next month.

This example illustrates the typical process and calculation of monthly returns, demonstrating how the rental income and interest on security deposits contribute to your debenture returns.

When is my investment process complete?

Your investment process is considered complete once the opportunity is fully funded, and the private placement of your investment in the SPV is finalized. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the process:

Investment Completion Process

• Escrow Mechanism: Your total investment amount is routed through an escrow mechanism to ensure secure handling.
• SPV Subscription: Funds are allocated to the share subscription accounts of the SPV, and eventually to its current account.

What are the ways if I want to exit my Investment?

To exit your investment with PropTory, you have three options available after the initial 1-year lock-in period:

1. Asset Sale:
   • If a profitable opportunity arises, PropTory, as the asset manager, will assess the potential sale. They will then present the opportunity to investors through an online poll. If at least 75% of shareholders vote to sell, PropTory will proceed with the liquidation process.
   • All necessary reports and documents supporting the decision-making process will be provided by PropTory. After the asset is sold, the resulting gains (after deducting any taxes and fees) will be distributed among shareholders and deposited into their respective registered bank accounts.
   • If shareholders opt to retain the asset, the investment will continue until the next poll is conducted, repeating the decision-making process.
2. Private Sale:
   • Investors can sell their fractional holdings privately to individuals they know, such as friends or family. For this, you’ll need to execute the required transfer documents.
   • PropTory can assist by providing a valuation of your holdings if needed, helping you determine a fair price for the transaction.
3. Resale Market:
   • Utilizing PropTory’s online dashboard, investors can list their fractional holdings for resale at PropTory’s recommended Net Asset Value (NAV).
   • Similar to a private sale, you’ll need to complete the necessary transfer documentation. Once a new investor purchases your fraction, any resulting gains (after taxes and fees) will be credited to your registered bank account.

These options provide flexibility for investors to exit their investments based on their preferences and market conditions, ensuring a transparent and accessible process facilitated through PropTory’s platform.
