Vedanta Group's US$ 894 m bond interest payment due on 9 February 2024, was processed with a delay of seven days.
The delay happened due to a 'discrepancy' in information. However, the payment was made following an investigation and clarification.
Struggling with a significant debt accumulated from multiple acquisitions, the group led by Indian billionaire Anil Agarwal managed to strike a deal with creditors in January. This agreement allowed them to extend the repayment deadlines for three-dollar bonds.
As per the agreement, Vedanta paid investors US$ 57 million (m) initially for the bond due in August 2024. Additionally, they extended the repayment period for the remaining principal of US$ 894 m.
Vedanta Resources had received strong approval from bondholders for the restructuring proposal of four series of bonds. The consensus ranged from 97% to nearly 100% across the four series.
As of the end of December, the big natural resources company owed Rs 752.3 bn, which is over US$ 9 bn. After subtracting what it owes from what it's owed the net debt is Rs 624.9 bn, which is almost US$ 8 bn.
Vedanta seeks to cut debt by up to US$ 2 bn in the next fiscal as it focuses on generating free cash flow by managing costs and enhancing volumes.
Riding the wave of India's burgeoning electric vehicle (EV) market, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility, a subsidiary of Tata Motors and the brain behind popular models like Nexon EV and Tiago EV, is revving up for a potential initial public offering (IPO) in the next 12-18 months.
This public debut, aiming to raise $1-2 billion, signifies the Tata Group's strategic push towards monetising its investments in the fast-growing EV space.
While a definitive timeline for the IPO hasn't been set in stone, the group is reportedly eyeing FY25 or FY26 as a potential window, contingent on favourable market conditions for electric vehicles and positive overall stock market sentiment. Notably, Tata Motors has already committed to investing US$ 1 bn in TPEML through internal resources, and this plan is progressing as per schedule.
The news comes on the heels of TPEML successfully securing $1 billion in funding from TPG in January 2023 as part of its ambitious $2 billion investment plan for the EV segment by 2026.
While the IPO could further bolster its fundraising capabilities, sources close to the development suggest that the primary driver lies in the Tata Group's broader strategy of unlocking value from its EV investments.
After the IPO of Tata Technologies, these five new Tata Group companies are set to list on the exchange soon.
