As per a leading financial daily, Idea Cellular has got its shareholders approval to raise up to Rs 100 billion through issue of non-convertible debt securities on private placement basis in one or more tranches. The same was approved in the company's 20th AGM held on Monday by way of approval of a special resolution. Idea Cellular is the leading GSM mobile services operator in India with over 72 million subscribers.
