The company, whose reworked CDR scheme was approved in September, will issue 2.71 crore shares of face value of Rs 2 each to its promoters at a price of Rs 74 per share, aggregating to the sum of Rs 200.54 crore. Further, the shares will be issued on or before June 30, 2013, in two equal tranches.

The preferential share offer is part of the requirement mentioned in the letter of approval dated September 18, 2012, issued by the CDR cell while giving a nod to reworked corporate debt restructuring scheme of the company.

The approval was required in order to maintain cash flow for its operations, particularly till its new 8-lakh-tonne Odisha capacity begins production at optimum level.
