Its net debt stood at Rs 7,165.70 crore at the end of the last fiscal with a debt to equity ratio of 0.71.


Unitech is facing a liquidity crunch due to slowdown in the real estate market, particularly housing segment.


It has been facing consumer complaints and protest due to delay in completion of some of its projects.


"The company's focus during the year has been primarily on completing the ongoing projects. Balance expected receipts from these ongoing projects combined are sufficient not only to meet the remaining construction expense but to also to service the debt, if any, against these projects," Unitech MD Sanjay Chandra had said after the quartely result.
