Suzlon’s creditors have refused a 50% haircut on their loans and might push the company into bankruptcy resolution, Business Today reports. The wind turbine maker had a net debt of ₹7,751 crore in March 2019, but its market value has plummeted to just ₹1,500 crore. Suzlon’s troubles started in July when it defaulted on $172 million of foreign currency bonds. The company was reportedly in talks with buyers, but a deal didn’t materialize. Promoter Tulsi Tanti now holds less than 20% in the company; over three-fourths of it is pledged.

On the one hand, there is a cloud of economic crisis in India. On the other hand, some of the country’s largest and most prominent companies are going through a bankruptcy process. Then the president of one more country has filed bankruptcy and is about to close.

According to the company, it incurred losses primarily due to lower volumes, foreign exchange losses, impairment losses, and finance costs which resulted in negative net worth in the last financial year.
