Covid-19 effect: Arvind Fashions opt for moratorium on repayments
Arvind Fashions Ltd (AFL), part of
Ahmedabad-based Lalbhai group, has opted to use moratorium on loan repayment
amid closure of stores resulting in significant weakening of cash flows due to
national lockdown to combat coronavirus spread.
On
March 27, Reserve Bank of India had permitted lenders to grant borrowers the
moratorium for three months for its debt obligations, including interest on
working capital facilities as a Covid19-relief measure.
The
company is also taking steps including slashing expenditure to manage adverse

are extending unsecured loans facility worth Rs 50 crore and to use emergency
credit limits of Rs 40-45 crore sanctioned by its bankers in April 2020, according
to rating agency CARE. Read More
