New Delhi: Private sector lender ICICI Bank has acquired a 5.15 percent stake in Hindustan Motors as part of settlement with the cash strapped maker of the iconic Ambassador car.
In a filing to the BSE, Hindustan Motors said ICICI Bank has acquired 1.07 crore shares of the company, totalling to 5.15 percent stake, on September 29.
"ICICI Bank has received 1,07,43,600 equity shares of Hindustan Motors Ltd in lieu of settlement of Right of Recompense (RoR) payable to the lenders on the exit of HML from the purview of corporate debt restructuring (CDR)," the filing said.
On September 29, the board of Hindustan Motors had alloted securities on a preferential basis to the lenders, banks and financial institutions, in accordance with approval of corporate debt restructuring process.
