COS LIKELY TO SWAP FOREX LOANS FOR RE DEBT
Article Abstract:
In anticipation of a further fall in the value of the rupee, many corporates have decided to tap the financial institutions (FIs) to swap their foreign exchange loans with rupee- denominated debt. The Jindal Group and HFCL have already approached the FIs for converting their outstanding foreign currency loans into rupee loans. The engineering and core sector companies also have asked the FIs to reduce the foreign exchange component of their debt due to the fall in domestic interest rates. (gsh)
