Suzlon Energy on September 5, 2022 said that inadvertently; SBICAP Trustee had mentioned name of ‘Adani Green Energy Limited’ as the ‘Target Company’ in its reporting, instead of ‘Suzlon Energy Limited’.
SBICAP Trustee clarified that a typo had occurred in the target company’s name and that the additional pledge has been created in favour of SBICAP Trustee and not Adani Green Energy. SBICAP Trustee is acting as trustees for the benefit of REC led consortium (comprising of REC Limited and Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited), who have financed the Company and its certain specified subsidiaries (“STG”). BICAP Trustee has recently reported creation of encumbrance over the shares held by the Promoters in the Company in favour of SBICAP Trustee, Suzlon Energy said.
“In the context, we wish to clarify that encumbrance has been created by the Promoters of the Company in favour of SBICAP Trustee only for securing the obligations of the STG towards REC led consortium and not in anybody else favour nor for any other purpose. It is further clarified that there is no existing or new pledge by the Promoters in favour of Adani Green Energy Limited,” Suzlon Energy said in exchange filing.
