This allowed us to pay dues to eligible creditors -- including several public funds and debenture holders -- that are invested at the vertical holding companies and group holding company, on interim basis, without waiting for final resolution,” said Nand Kishore, Managing Director, IL&FS Group.

IL&FS initiated pay-outs to eligible creditors under the Interim Distribution framework in three companies -- IL&FS Limited, IFIN and ITNL -- totalling to over Rs 2,400 crore in September.

This amount being paid to creditors is in addition to nearly Rs 7,600 crore already disbursed across 12 group companies under the approved interim distribution framework in the last one year.
