M&M would aim to bring Ssangyong Motors of Koreainto its fold near debt free. There are also plans to infuse significant cash into the bankrupt Korean company. It is learnt that M&M would infuse nearly $400 million as equity into Ssangyong to acquire a controlling stake. These funds would be used to repay all long-term debts at around $320 million as of March 2010 post restructuring.
