India's Kingfisher Airlines sees stock rise as UB Group doubles loan capAFP MUMBAI -- Shares in India's debt-laden Kingfisher Airlines rose 5 percent Tuesday after its parent firm United Breweries said it would raise the sum it can lend to the carrier, which is desperate for cash.
February 21, 2013, 12:52 am TWN Kingfisher, controlled by Indian liquor baron Vijay Mallya, rose 5 percent — the maximum daily limit — to trade at 10.53 rupees. The rise came a day after the UB Group said it would more than double its cap on loans for Kingfisher to 7.5 billion rupees (US$136 million) from 3 billion rupees earlier — a step that needs shareholder approval. |
