In a bid to fund their capital requirements, Larsen and Toubro (L&T) is reportedly planning to raise around $500 million by selling shares to institutional investors. The issue, expected to be launched in a few weeks after getting the board and shareholder approvals, will be a real test of the institutional appetite for companies catering to India’s infrastructure sector. The company’s board is expected to approve the proposed fund-raising plan in this week.
