Tata Group in talks with Shapoorji Pallonji for potential share swap or buyout of its 18.4% stake in Tata Sons.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Tata Group<\/a> is in talks with its biggest minority shareholder on proposals to unlock liquidity, including a potential swap of shares of its listed entities, as the Shapoorji Pallonji Group seeks funds to repay costly debt, according to sources.Representatives of Noel Tata, the Tata family patriarch, are exploring the possibility where SP Group receives shares of companies such as Tata Power Co in exchange for some or all of its 18.4% in the privately-held Tata Sons Pvt, the sources said, asking not to be identified as the discussions are private.Two other options have also been presented: a direct buyout of the construction giant\u2019s stake by Tata Sons, financed by overseas banks, or a sale to an external investor, preferably a global one, the sources added.<\/p>\n

Any breakthrough on this long-running tussle between the Tatas and the SP Group will prove to be a windfall for investors in the latter\u2019s debt, which include the likes of Cerberus Capital Management LP, Davidson Kempner Capital Management and Farallon Capital Management. For the Tatas, a resolution may ease some of the intense regulatory spotlight it has come under in the past few years after RBI rules revived pressure on its holding company to list on the exchanges.Noel is the chairman of Tata Trusts, a group of charities that own 66% in Tata Sons. Natarajan Chandrasekaran\u2019s announcement this month that he\u2019ll step down as Tata Sons chairman in Feb has put Noel in the driver\u2019s seat to drive a settlement. Noel also has familial connections: he is married to Aloo Mistry, the sister of SP Group chairman Shapoor Mistry.Representatives of Tata Sons and Shapoorji Pallonji Group did not offer any immediate comments.SP Group closed one of the largest private credit transactions in India in July, as investors are hopeful that the conglomerate can eventually monetise its stake in Tata Sons and unlock liquidity worth billions of rupees.There\u2019s no certainty that the ongoing talks will lead to a deal and the structure of the transaction may change as negotiations proceed, the sources said. A major hurdle will be in agreeing at a valuation for Tata Sons that controls bulk of the sprawling salt-to-software conglomerate and has many large unlisted businesses such as Air India Ltd and iPhone maker Tata Electronics Pvt Ltd under its umbrella. Both sides are evaluating legal aspects of all options being discussed as well as potential regulatory issues around the share swap since it will involve listed Tata entities, the sources said. SP Group is also periodically updating its stakeholders on the negotiations, while advisers are examining the legal implications of the various structures under consideration, they said.A resolution needs to come through within the next 18 months as that is the timeline when SP Group\u2019s recently closed bond issue will need to make its first payout. These bonds sold by Eqyizen Investment offered 18.95% and will mature in 36 months. The first interest payment is coming up in July 2028.<\/div>\n
