"As per the SDR scheme, out of the total outstanding debt (including accrued interest) of Rs 8,800 crore, debt to the extent of Rs 2,992 crore has been converted into equity by which the consortium lenders would have 52.4 per cent shareholding and balance 47.6 per cent would be held by GMR," GMR said.
