RCap lenders delay auction to get more bidders on board

The auction has been postponed from 4 April to 11 April, the people said.

Indusind Holdings of Hinduja Group, Torrent Investments and Oaktree Capital have informed lenders that they will participate in the auction, the officials said, requesting anonymity. Only the Piramal-Cosmea Financial consortium has not responded yet.

The bidders have sought more time to complete the compliance process.

In the second auction, the base price was set at 9,500 crore, higher than the previous bids.
