SP Group Faces Rs 3,500 Crore Repayment Deadline Following July Refinancing
The Shapoorji Pallonji (SP) Group faces a repayment deadline of approximately Rs 3,500 crore by the end of September, linked to earlier financing. This payment was expected from proceeds of a Rs 21,500-crore refinancing completed in July, largely backed by the group's stake in Tata Sons. However, part of the refinancing funds was retained for other uses, and it is unclear if SP Group has secured the full amount. Lenders note that repayment would improve the group's loan-to-value ratio from around 40% to 32%.
