This loan of $2.9 billion (about Rs 25,000 crore) has been given by a syndicate of 55 banks, which is believed to be the largest syndicated loan this year in Asia.

This agreement has been divided into two parts - the first part is of $2.4 billion and the second is of 67.7 billion Japanese Yen (about $462 million). The deal was finalized on May 9.

Taking loans: strategy or necessity?

These loans being taken by big industrialists in the Indian corporate sector make it clear that whether it is Adani or Ambani - both groups are making aggressive capital investments for strategic expansion and to survive in global competition. This trend indicates major changes and investment possibilities in the infrastructure, energy and transport sectors of the Indian economy.
