As Jet Airways battles acute financial woes, a senior government official Monday said a \u201cgood outcome\u201d from the negotiations between the creditors and the company would be better than moving for proceedings under the insolvency law. \u201cI think creditors and the debtor are in discussion. That is the best process,\u201d Corporate Affairs Secretary Injeti Srinivas said.<\/p>\n
He was responding to a query on whether Jet Airways is a fit case to be referred under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). \u201cIf there is a good outcome from the negotiations between the creditors and the corporate debtor, then that is better than dragging into insolvency\u2026 but if that (insolvency) is only option left at that stage, then bankers will take a call,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n
The cash-strapped airline, which has been operating for over 25 years, is looking to restructure its debt, estimated to be more than Rs 8,000 crore, as well as raise fresh funds. Lenders of the crisis-hit Jet Airways are likely to acquire a substantial stake in the carrier till a new promoter is roped in, sources said last week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
