The initial proposal from L&T Finance involved a larger portfolio of ₹5,293 crore ($713 million) encompassing 16 accounts. Only 15 accounts were eventually sold, as ARCs showed a lack of interest in the exposure from Delhi-NCR realtor Supertech.
This decision by L&T Finance is part of an ongoing effort to sanitize its books and manage financial risks. By offloading these distressed assets, the company underscores its commitment to maintaining a robust financial position in the market.
