Vodafone gets lenders' nod for Indus Towers-Bharti Infratel merger

On September 1, Vodafone Group had announced that it had agreed to proceed with the proposed merger.

"The agreement to proceed was conditional on consent for a security package for the benefit of the Combined Company (the "Security Package") from Vodafone's existing lenders (for the Euro 1.3 billion loan utilised to fund Vodafone's contribution to the Vodafone Idea Ltd rights issue in 2019). This consent has now been received," the company said in a statement on Monday.

The parties will now approach the National Company Law Tribunal to make the merger scheme effective. The parties are working to complete the transaction expeditiously, it added.
