Tata Trusts control 66% of one of India's oldest groups
Investors could worry, trustee Vijay Singh tells Reuters
Says Tata Trusts are "largely hands off", however
Tata stocks lose $4.6 billion in value on exit news but recover
Succession question comes as Tata struggles to turn around Air India
By Aditi Shah and Jayshree P Upadhyay
NEW DELHI, Aug 13 (Reuters) - The exit of the chairman of Tata Sons from India's storied tea-to-tech conglomerate may pause bitter disputes with its controlling charity, but has ignited worries about the power of the philanthropic arm, which has now forced out two chiefs.
The departure of N. Chandrasekaran has raised concern over the continuity and stability of the 158-year-old group battling with losses in aviation and e-commerce ventures, while working to make products for global clients like Apple AAPL.O.
"If I am an investor, I would be worried," said Vijay Singh, one of the trustees at Tata Trusts, the charity that controls 66% of Tata Sons, the holding company of the conglomerate.
"Stability of the group is important for investors and that depends on the relationship between the company and its largest shareholder," he told Reuters.
The sole reason for Chandrasekaran's resignation is his disagreements with Tata Trusts, Reuters has reported.
The charity and its head, Noel Tata, had been upset about mounting financial losses at airline Air India and concerns about several other business strategies adopted by the group.
The conglomerate comprises more than two dozen companies such as Tata Motors-owned TAMO.NS Jaguar Land Rover, Tata Steel TISC.NS, Tata Consultancy Services TCS.NS and Tata Electronics, which have their own boards and leadership.
Singh said the charity followed a "hands-off approach" regarding business at the group, but some investors were getting worried.
"It's more a reputational issue," said Minari Shah, an independent strategic communications adviser, who previously worked at Tata Motors.
"The need is to lay out the succession plan thoughtfully because the internal and external stakeholders will watch the group carefully to see how it deals with the leadership."
In 2016, Tata Sons' board sacked its then-chairman, after he fell out over governance issues with group patriarch Ratan Tata, one of India's best-known corporate titans, who headed the charity arm before his death in 2024.
Now Chandrasekaran's exit, prompted by disagreements with the current Trust chairman Noel Tata, the half-brother of Ratan Tata, is raising concerns that such disruptions could become a recurring feature at the group.
Established in 1892, the charity says it is "India's oldest, and amongst Asia's largest, philanthropic institutions", working to improve healthcare, nutrition, education, water and sanitation.
"We extend our full support to Tata Sons in ensuring a smooth, timely and orderly transition of leadership, consistent with the values and long-term interests of Tata Sons and the Tata group," the Tata Trusts said in a statement.
BIGGEST CONCERN FOR INVESTORS
Stocks of Tata group lost $4.6 billion in combined market value on the news of Chandrasekaran's exit, before staging a recovery late on Thursday.
Over the years, Tata has built a sprawling business through the acquisition of brands such as British tea firm Tetley, a recent deal with Europe-based Iveco's IVG.MI trucks business and its India partnership with Starbucks SBUX.O.
The biggest concern for investors now is whether Tata Sons can independently set priorities for group companies, or if it will continue to be influenced by Trust priorities, two domestic institutional investors told Reuters on condition of anonymity.
"Succession has once again become a topic of conversation at a time when Tata is facing a number of other challenges - TCS' market cap is falling, Air India troubles (are mounting)," said one of them.
"A stable top was needed while Tatas navigate these challenges."
Foreign and domestic institutional investors together have an estimated $54 to $56 billion of exposure across five of Tata's most-watched listed companies, exchange disclosures showed.
During Chandra's tenure, investor wealth has grown with the combined market capitalisation of Tata companies rising to $277 billion by March 31 from $76 billion when he became chairman in 2017.

By Shritama Bose
MUMBAI, Aug 12 (Reuters Breakingviews) - India's $290 billion Tata conglomerate has extended its abysmal record on managing succession. Its leader of nine years, N. Chandrasekaran, resigned on Wednesday ahead of an annual meeting next week where shareholders of the unlisted holding company, Tata Sons, may have ousted him. The exit of the first real outsider to run the 158-year-old group removes a distraction but also raises difficult questions about its future.
A row between Chandra and the charitable trusts that control the salt-to-power conglomerate became public in February over a mandate by the Reserve Bank of India to list Tata Sons. Chandra didn't see eye to eye with Tata Trusts Chair Noel Tata who opposed a listing. That led to a stalemate over his reappointment which made his position untenable.
The recent discord overshadowed Chandra's success in turning around large parts of the group. He deleveraged bloated balance sheets after inheriting serious problems at Tata Steel TISC.NS and Tata Motors TATM.NS. Annualised total shareholder returns from most listed group firms have beaten India's benchmark Nifty 50 stock index .NSEI since he took charge in 2017, prior to news of his departure.
But AI pressures have led to lagging returns at Tata Consultancy Services TCS.NS, the group's industry-leading IT outsourcer where he was previously CEO and which contributes 87% of Tata Sons' $3.4 billion annual dividend income. That will squeeze funds available to plough into unlisted businesses like the group's smartphone making venture with Apple AAPL.O and money-losing Air India, a carrier foisted on Chandra by the late Ratan Tata, former Tata Sons chair and chair emeritus.
Infighting also has delayed decision-making on other leadership issues: it took four months to name a CEO for Air India after Campbell Wilson stepped down in April, while rival IndiGo-owner InterGlobe Aviation INGL.NS replaced its chief within weeks in March. And the spat also has jeopardised the Tatas' philanthropic spending, which relies on dividends paid up through the holding company.
Worst of all, Chandra's departure is uncomfortably reminiscent of the 2016 ouster of his predecessor Cyrus Mistry. Back then, Ratan Tata swooped in as interim chair for four months before handing over to Chandra. His passing in 2024 has left the family's influence over the group in flux and the trusts under greater scrutiny, a test they are not passing with flying colours.
The 5% drop in Tata Consultancy shares on news of Chandra's departure underscores the ripple effect it will have across the group where he also chairs many individual companies. And it signals how the consequences of this second leadership disaster could force a bigger rethink on how the Tata group, with its unusual ownership structure, is managed.

CONTEXT NEWS
N. Chandrasekaran on August 12 resigned as chair of Tata Sons, the Indian conglomerate's holding company, citing the absence of unanimous support from the board for his re-appointment.
In a personal statement, Chandrasekaran, known as Chandra, said one board member did not support his re-appointment at a February board meeting, noting six months have since passed without a resolution on the matter. Chandra added it is necessary to have a leader in place to run the group beyond February 2027, when his current term as chair ends.
Earlier in the day, The Economic Times, citing unnamed sources, reported Chandra had discussed the possibility of stepping down ahead of an annual general meeting scheduled for August 18 amid uncertainty over his reappointment as a director and tensions with Tata Trusts Chair Noel Tata.
Charitable trusts collectively own nearly two-thirds of Tata Sons. Two of them — Sir Ratan Tata Trust and Sir Dorabji Tata Trust — hold a 52% stake between them.

RBI keeps Tata Sons in top tier of NBFCs
Says move won't affect pending licence surrender application.
Decision leaves unresolved whether Tata Sons will ultimately be required to list
Rewrites with comments from source, background
By Nishit Navin and Gopika Gopakumar
Aug 6 (Reuters) - The Reserve Bank of India on Thursday kept Tata Sons under enhanced regulatory supervision but said that would not affect the holding company's pending application to surrender its non-banking finance licence, leaving uncertainty over whether it will eventually have to list its shares.
Tata Sons, the principal investment holding company of the $400-billion Tata Group, was first classified as an upper-layer non-banking financial company (NBFC) in 2022. Under RBI rules, such entities are required to list within three years, although the regulator did not clarify whether that requirement applies while Tata Sons' deregistration request remains under review.
To avoid a listing, Tata Sons repaid its debt and applied about two years ago to surrender its NBFC licence. The application is still being considered by the central bank.
A person familiar with the RBI's thinking said the regulator is unlikely to require Tata Sons to list while the application remains pending, even though the three-year timeline has elapsed.
"Technically if you see Tata Sons has to follow all the regulation and if you look at even the listing, RBI will consider it as overdue. Since the application is yet to be disposed of, RBI will not push them to enforce these regulations," said the source familiar with the matter
The RBI and Tata Sons did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra said on Wednesday that Tata Sons continued to be classified as an upper-layer NBFC because the framework governing such entities was "principle-based".
Upper-layer NBFCs are considered large and systemically important financial institutions and are subject to enhanced regulatory oversight. Tata Sons remains in the category because its asset size exceeds the stipulated 10 trillion rupees ($105 billion) threshold.
The outcome is significant because the Tata Trusts own about 66% of Tata Sons. A public listing could affect funding for the trusts' philanthropic activities and its investments in unlisted businesses, and alter the ownership structure of one of India's largest conglomerates.
Pressure for a listing has also come from Tata Sons' second-largest shareholder, the Shapoorji Pallonji Group, which wants to monetise or exit its holding as it seeks to reduce debt estimated at 5.5 trillion rupees to 6 trillion rupees.
Tata Sons owns Air India, Tata Digital and Tata Electronics, alongside stakes in listed companies including Tata Consultancy Services TCS.NS and Tata Steel TISC.NS.

Odisha inspections show grade manipulation - documents, sources
Tata Steel denies discrepancies - spokesperson
Offers for lower grade iron ore fall over past month - BigMint
By Neha Arora and Jatindra Dash
NEW DELHI, Aug 4 (Reuters) - India's top iron ore producing state of Odisha has warned steelmakers and miners of strict action over alleged grade manipulation and misdeclaration, according to documents reviewed by Reuters and three sources, a crackdown that analysts say could tighten domestic iron ore supplies.
India, the world's second-largest crude steel producer after China, is expected to produce 340 million to 345 million metric tons of iron ore, the key raw material used in steelmaking, in 2026-27, up from about 316 million tons a year earlier, commodities consultancy BigMint said.
Any disruption to supplies from resource-rich Odisha could scupper those production targets.
The warning follows inspections that "revealed a consistent grade manipulation by the lessees," which include major steel producers, resulting in a "substantial loss" of state revenues, according to a July 6 government document reviewed by Reuters.
The companies named in the July 6 letter included JSW Steel JSTL.NS, Tata Steel TISC.NS, state-run Steel Authority of India (SAIL) SAIL.NS, Jindal Steel JINT.NS and ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel India.
A Tata Steel spokesperson denied any discrepancies, saying it pays royalties as per prescribed norms and that most of its iron ore dispatches are in the highest royalty grade.
JSW declined to comment. SAIL and Jindal Steel did not respond to Reuters' emails seeking comment. Odisha's Directorate of Mines and Geology also did not respond to requests for comment.
Government officials met steel and mining associations and company executives last month to discuss the findings, according to July 13 meeting minutes and a source familiar with the matter.
"Any deliberate grade manipulation, misdeclaration or suppression of mineral value affecting government revenue shall be viewed very seriously and strictly dealt with," the meeting minutes showed.
Odisha's steel and mines department directed lessees to revise mining plans and seek approval from the Indian Bureau of Mines where actual ore grades differ from approved grades, according to the minutes.
Analysts say stricter inspections are already affecting lower grade ore availability.
Offers for lower grade ore have become limited in the merchant market over the past month because of intensified inspections by Odisha authorities, BigMint said.
"Since Odisha is the largest producer of iron ore in the country, if the issue escalates, it might impact the overall availability of iron ore in the country," said B.K. Bhatia, a mining expert and former director general of the Federation of Indian Mineral Industries.
Industry representatives disputed the state's allegations.
"Industry has raised concerns that the grades extracted are as per the geology and that is not under anyone's control," one industry representative said, declining to be identified because they were not authorised to speak to the media.

Tata Steel's board approved a 4.8 million-tonne steelmaking expansion at its Neelachal Ispat Nigam unit with an estimated capital outlay of ₹33,873 crore. The project will deepen the company's presence in the long products retail segment, where its branded products enjoy strong demand. The decision comes after the board gave in-principle approval to the expansion in December 2025, and as the company progresses the amalgamation of NINL into Tata Steel. Tata Steel's Indian operations, which delivered record deliveries of around 22.5 million tonnes in FY26, remain the core profit engine of the group. The board also approved the June quarter standalone financial results, reporting revenue of ₹36,896 crore and a net profit of ₹4,536 crore.

Tata Steel's massive tax dispute relating to assessment year 2019-20 has been restored for hearing by the Bombay High Court on August 19, after the Supreme Court set aside favourable precedents and remanded such cases back to the high courts. The case stems from a ₹25,185 crore loan waiver that the tax department treated as taxable income, leading to a reassessment order. The company had won an earlier round on technical grounds, but a retrospective amendment in the Finance Act 2026 undid that advantage, forcing the matter back before the high court. Tata Steel now intends to amend its writ petition to challenge the constitutional validity of the amendment itself. The tax authorities have been directed to file a counter affidavit, and the company maintains it has a strong case on merits.

MUMBAI, June 9 (Reuters) - Two of India's Tata Group infrastructure units are set to return to the corporate bond market in the coming days, after more than 15 months, two merchant bankers said on Tuesday.
Indian corporate bond yields have eased after the Reserve Bank of India maintained key policy rates unchanged last week, providing some relief to the market.
Tata Steel TISC.NS is set to raise 30 billion rupees ($313.23 million) through a sale of five-year bonds, while Tata Projects, a real estate firm, could raise 5 billion rupees to 10 billion rupees through a combination of three-year and five-year papers.
"Both the companies have alerted merchant bankers, and are waiting for the rates to ease further before tapping the market," one of the bankers said.
The bankers asked not to be named as they are not authorised to speak to the media. Tata Projects did not reply to an email seeking comment, while Tata Steel said, "We do not have any imminent plans for any issuances of bonds."
Before the RBI's rate decision, yields on AAA-rated two-to-five-year corporate bonds rose past 8%, their highest level since early 2019, according to LSEG data, and have crashed by around 50 basis points since.
Tata Steel, which has over 150 billion rupees in outstanding bonds, has a 10-billion-rupee maturity coming up in October. The AAA-rated borrower last tapped the market in February 2025, raising 30 billion rupees via five-year bonds at a 7.65% coupon.
During the same month, AA-rated Tata Projects raised 5 billion rupees by selling six-year bonds at 8.60% coupon.

India to scrutinise terms set for beauty pageant contestants
Regulator is also investigating big companies like Apple
Case linked to market of beauty pageants for married women
By Aditya Kalra
NEW DELHI, June 3 (Reuters) - India's antitrust body is investigating Mrs. India Inc, an organiser of a beauty pageant for married women that sends winners to global events, accusing it of abusing its position and setting burdensome contract terms for participants.
The first such investigation by the Competition Commission of India (CCI) comes as it also investigates accusations of wrongdoing by some of the world's biggest companies, such as France's Pernod Ricard, Apple AAPL.O and India's Tata Steel.
It focuses on a niche area the regulator described as a "market for services of beauty pageants for married women in India" with the aim of sending winners to major international contests.
The CCI's analysis of agreements submitted by a contestant showed they contained "onerous terms", it said in Wednesday's order.
These include a five-year bar on many contestants and winners from participating in any other beauty pageant, whether as judge or mentor.
"Participants are also prohibited from signing or accepting any professional assignments or contracts without express written permission" of the firm, the CCI added.
Mrs India Inc did not respond to a Reuters request for comment.
CASE TRIGGERED BY COMPLAINT FROM RUNNER-UP
On its website, Mrs India Inc calls itself the "most credible" beauty pageant for married women in India and says it is "associated with most prestigious international beauty pageants for married women".
The CCI said its case was triggered by a complaint from Rinima Borah Agarwal, a runner-up in the 2024 competition, also crowned "Mrs. India Galaxy", allowing her to compete in the "International Mrs. Galaxy" pageant representing India in 2025.
The watchdog said it had sought comments and details of Mrs India Inc's tie-ups in 2025 in its review of the accusations, but the firm did not respond, despite numerous opportunities to do so.
Another onerous contract term, the watchdog pointed out, requires the pageant's participants and winners to "join hands with a social cause recognised and promoted" by Mrs India Inc.
The regulator's investigations can typically run for months before it hands down a final order resolving the matter.

Updates with statement from Tata Trusts in 4th bullet
By Jayshree P Upadhyay
MUMBAI, May 15 (Reuters) - India's Maharashtra state charity commissioner has ordered Tata Trusts to defer its Saturday board meeting after complaints triggered an inquiry into the trusts' governance.
Tata Trusts holds a controlling stake in the holding company of the Tata Group, Tata Sons, which faces pressure to list.
The trusts have been told not to hold the meeting until an inspector completes a probe and submits a report.
The order, seen by Reuters, follows complaints over trust composition. One of the complainants is Venu Srinivasan, a senior trustee at Tata Trusts, the charity commissioner's order said.
In a late-night statement, Tata Trusts said that directions from the authorities are being examined and that it was not aware of any complaint filed by Srinivasan.

May 5 - Sun Pharmaceutical's mammoth all-cash bid for U.S. drugmaker Organon & Co last week is yet another instance of Indian companies making bolder bets overseas, backed by the strength of their balance sheets.
But history shows that returns from these cross‑border deals are not always assured. With global M&A now becoming a strategic necessity rather than just offering bragging rights, is that likely to change? Write to me with your views on Indian companies' growing global ambitions at [email protected].
And, two executives are in the running for the post of Air India CEO. Scroll down for more on that.
THIS WEEK IN ASIA
While Asia and Europe scramble for natural gas, the US glut has nowhere to go
China's central bank guides banks to step up lending in April, sources say
Investors are running out of time to brace for true oil shock
One of Iran’s most powerful families founded its largest crypto exchange. It’s used by the IRGC to move millions
NOT JUST AMBITION, BUT A STRATEGIC NEED
From pharmaceuticals to IT, Indian firms across sectors are looking overseas in search of newer markets, products and technologies for their next burst of growth.
Sun Pharma is buying Organon in a deal valued at about $11.75 billion including debt, making it the largest overseas acquisition by an Indian pharma company.
It eclipsed another large overseas bet just months ago by IT firm Coforge to acquire artificial intelligence firm Encora for $2.35 billion, and Tata Motors' purchase of Italian commercial vehicle manufacturer Iveco for $4.45 billion in July 2025.
The first quarter of 2026 has seen 56 outbound transactions valued at $3.9 billion, according to data from advisory firm Grant Thornton Bharat LLP. In 2025, 162 such deals worth $18.2 billion were closed.
Proximity to customers, control over distribution and insulation from trade barriers are important drivers of outbound M&A, said Bhavesh Shah, managing director and head of investment banking at Mumbai-based investment bank Equirus Capital.
"What’s changed is the rise in capability-led acquisitions, whether it’s R&D, specialty products, or technology," Shah said. "So earlier it was about global ambition; today it’s more a strategic necessity to stay competitive and de-risk supply chains."
Sun Pharma, for instance, is acquiring a suite of products in women's health with the Organon purchase - a segment projected to have a $600 billion opportunity. Coforge entered the much-in-demand agentic AI space with its acquisition of U.S.-based Encora.
"Together, the two deals capture the full spectrum of India's outbound ambition: buying capability where it does not exist domestically and buying global scale where organic growth would take decades," said Sumeet Abrol, partner and national leader for deals at Grant Thornton Bharat.
GROWTH OF FINANCING OPTIONS
Corporate India's overseas ambitions have ebbed and flowed over the years, and some have left individual companies burdened with debt.
The buyout rush of the early 2000s - which saw Tata Steel acquire Anglo-Dutch group Corus for $12 billion, Tata Motors buy out iconic British brands Jaguar and Land Rover for $2.3 billion and Hindalco acquire Canada's Novelis for $6 billion - was one of the reasons that led to excess leverage on corporate balance sheets.
But after a decade-long clean-up, debt on most Indian corporate balance sheets is low. The median debt-to-EBITDA for rated Indian corporates was at 0.5 times as of March 2026, while interest coverage ratio was 5 times, according to rating agency CRISIL.
Recent deals don't immediately raise red flags, analysts said.
"Funding has been quite disciplined this cycle. It’s a good mix of internal accruals and moderate leverage," said Equirus' Shah.
Transactions such as Tata Motors' purchase of Iveco have also seen the increased use of guarantees to raise debt in overseas units. Tata Motors issued a $2.26 billion guarantee to back financing for the deal.
"The availability of debt financing on target balance sheets in overseas markets (LBOs) with no or limited recourse to acquiring balance sheets in India is also fueling some of this activity while keeping the Indian balance sheets deleveraged," said Grant Thornton's Abrol, adding that these financing options are increasingly available to even mid-market companies.
Abrol, however, said the deal struck by Sun Pharma is a transaction that needs to be "watched carefully" for balance sheet discipline.
"Post-transaction, the combined entity's net debt-to-EBITDA is projected at 2.3x — manageable, but a meaningful departure from Sun Pharma's historically net cash positive position," he said.
The company said it aims to bring down debt "soon", with analysts expecting a three-four year period for debt reduction.
MARKET MATTERS
Foreign investors have continued to offload Indian shares, selling a net $6.5 billion in April after dumping $12.7 billion in March. With no quick resolution to the war between U.S.-Israel and Iran, investors expect earnings growth in India to slow, making valuations unattractive. Read here.
The persistent outflows have pushed the rupee back down to record lows despite steps taken by the central bank to support the currency.
The Indian central bank is mulling steps to draw dollar flows, Reuters reported on Monday.

May 5 - Sun Pharmaceutical's mammoth all-cash bid for U.S. drugmaker Organon & Co last week is yet another instance of Indian companies making bolder bets overseas, backed by the strength of their balance sheets.
But history shows that returns from these cross‑border deals are not always assured. With global M&A now becoming a strategic necessity rather than just offering bragging rights, is that likely to change? Write to me with your views on Indian companies' growing global ambitions at [email protected].
And, two executives are in the running for the post of Air India CEO. Scroll down for more on that.

NOT JUST AMBITION, BUT A STRATEGIC NEED
From pharmaceuticals to IT, Indian firms across sectors are looking overseas in search of newer markets, products and technologies for their next burst of growth.
Sun Pharma is buying Organon in a deal valued at about $11.75 billion including debt, making it the largest overseas acquisition by an Indian pharma company.
It eclipsed another large overseas bet just months ago by IT firm Coforge to acquire artificial intelligence firm Encora for $2.35 billion, and Tata Motors' purchase of Italian commercial vehicle manufacturer Iveco for $4.45 billion in July 2025.
The first quarter of 2026 has seen 56 outbound transactions valued at $3.9 billion, according to data from advisory firm Grant Thornton Bharat LLP. In 2025, 162 such deals worth $18.2 billion were closed.
Proximity to customers, control over distribution and insulation from trade barriers are important drivers of outbound M&A, said Bhavesh Shah, managing director and head of investment banking at Mumbai-based investment bank Equirus Capital.
"What’s changed is the rise in capability-led acquisitions, whether it’s R&D, specialty products, or technology," Shah said. "So earlier it was about global ambition; today it’s more a strategic necessity to stay competitive and de-risk supply chains."
Sun Pharma, for instance, is acquiring a suite of products in women's health with the Organon purchase - a segment projected to have a $600 billion opportunity. Coforge entered the much-in-demand agentic AI space with its acquisition of U.S.-based Encora.
"Together, the two deals capture the full spectrum of India's outbound ambition: buying capability where it does not exist domestically and buying global scale where organic growth would take decades," said Sumeet Abrol, partner and national leader for deals at Grant Thornton Bharat.
GROWTH OF FINANCING OPTIONS
Corporate India's overseas ambitions have ebbed and flowed over the years, and some have left individual companies burdened with debt.
The buyout rush of the early 2000s - which saw Tata Steel acquire Anglo-Dutch group Corus for $12 billion, Tata Motors buy out iconic British brands Jaguar and Land Rover for $2.3 billion and Hindalco acquire Canada's Novelis for $6 billion - was one of the reasons that led to excess leverage on corporate balance sheets.
But after a decade-long clean-up, debt on most Indian corporate balance sheets is low. The median debt-to-EBITDA for rated Indian corporates was at 0.5 times as of March 2026, while interest coverage ratio was 5 times, according to rating agency CRISIL.
Recent deals don't immediately raise red flags, analysts said.
"Funding has been quite disciplined this cycle. It’s a good mix of internal accruals and moderate leverage," said Equirus' Shah.
Transactions such as Tata Motors' purchase of Iveco have also seen the increased use of guarantees to raise debt in overseas units. Tata Motors issued a $2.26 billion guarantee to back financing for the deal.
"The availability of debt financing on target balance sheets in overseas markets (LBOs) with no or limited recourse to acquiring balance sheets in India is also fueling some of this activity while keeping the Indian balance sheets deleveraged," said Grant Thornton's Abrol, adding that these financing options are increasingly available to even mid-market companies.
Abrol, however, said the deal struck by Sun Pharma is a transaction that needs to be "watched carefully" for balance sheet discipline.
"Post-transaction, the combined entity's net debt-to-EBITDA is projected at 2.3x — manageable, but a meaningful departure from Sun Pharma's historically net cash positive position," he said.
The company said it aims to bring down debt "soon", with analysts expecting a three-four year period for debt reduction.
MARKET MATTERS
Foreign investors have continued to offload Indian shares, selling a net $6.5 billion in April after dumping $12.7 billion in March. With no quick resolution to the war between U.S.-Israel and Iran, investors expect earnings growth in India to slow, making valuations unattractive. Read here.
The persistent outflows have pushed the rupee back down to record lows despite steps taken by the central bank to support the currency.
The Indian central bank is mulling steps to draw dollar flows, Reuters reported on Monday.
