Shapoorji Pallonji Group Repays Rs 3,500 Crore Debt Using Fresh Loans and Dollar Bonds
The Shapoorji Pallonji Group has repaid approximately Rs 3,500 crore to bondholders by securing fresh loans from existing lenders, avoiding a potential default on a September repayment deadline. The group plans to replicate a recent dollar-denominated debt issuance strategy, raising funds through foreign investors to buy rupee bonds issued by its entities. While the repayment eases immediate financial pressure, it does not reduce the overall debt, which remains substantial due to prior refinancing and high-yield borrowings.
