The Mcleod Russel (India) share price hit the 10 percent upper circuit in the morning session on September 21, a day after media reports said that Carbon Resources has expressed its intention to acquire the debt-laden company.

The Kolkata-based electrode paste producer has sent a non-binding letter of intent to the lenders to Mcleod Russel to acquire a controlling stake in the company, which belongs to the financially stressed Williamson Magor group.

According to sources, in the letter, the company offers to infuse upfront equity worth Rs 300 crore and a debt of Rs 945 crore to resolve Mcleod Russel’s outstanding debt. The tea maker currently has a debt of over Rs 1,700 crore.
