Shapoorji Pallonji Group Seeks Extension on Rs 3,500 Crore Bond Repayment
Shapoorji Pallonji Group is negotiating with lenders to extend repayment of a Rs 3,500 crore zero-coupon bond due September 30 by three to six months. The extension aims to ease repayment pressures as the group continues refinancing efforts. Proceeds from July financing were initially intended for this bond but are now allocated elsewhere. The group's stake in Tata Sons, which is moving toward a potential stock listing, is seen as a key asset that could help unlock value amid these financial arrangements.
