<\/figure>Kolkata | Mumbai: Vodafone Idea<\/a> (Vi) has started talks with US PE group Apollo Global<\/a> Management to secure up to $3 billion (Rs 22,400 crore) in funding over the next three months through a mix of debt and equity to meet major upcoming payment obligations, three people aware of the discussions told ET.Talks with Apollo, one of the executives said, are focused on business valuations, funding terms and structure of the proposed deal.
But unlike soured fundraising efforts in the past, such as one involving the Oak Hill-led consortium, \u201cVi is keen to secure its funding entirely through Apollo Global this time,\u201d said one of the executives privy to the talks.
<\/div><\/div>'May offer sizeable stake\u2019
<\/strong>
\u201cVi is even open to offering a sizeable stake once there is agreement on valuations and terms,\u201d said the executive.
Earlier rounds of fund-raising discussions were focused on capital infusion through convertible debt instruments.
At present, UK\u2019s Vodafone Group Plc<\/a> and the Aditya Birla Group<\/a> own 44.39% and 27.66%, respectively, in Vi as its co-promoters.
An Apollo Global spokesperson, in response to ET\u2019s queries, said the private equity firm \"has no comments to offer\". Vodafone Group Plc declined comment. Spokespersons for Vi and the Aditya Birla Group did not respond to ET\u2019s queries.
Apollo Global could impose stringent covenants, including corporate guarantees from Vi\u2019s co-promoters, to secure itself against potential payment defaults, another person aware of the talks said. Industry<\/a> insiders, though, expect both the Birlas and Vodafone UK to oppose such terms on offering corporate guarantees.
\"Abundant global liquidity and high investor risk appetite offer an opportunity to companies facing short-term stress to raise capital with stricter safeguards and covenants that protect investors,\" said Hemant Mishr, founder of SCUBE Capital, a Singapore-based fund.

<\/div><\/div>India\u2019s only loss-making private telco reported a negative net worth of Rs 38,228 crore end-March, FY21. Vi\u2019s shares closed 2.61% higher at Rs 9.03 on Friday, giving it a market cap of Rs 25,948.06 crore.
The loss-making telco needs to pay Rs 22,500 crore between December 2021 and April 2022 toward a mix of regular debt payments and dues related to adjusted gross revenue (AGR) and spectrum allocation. Its cash balance stood at Rs 350 crore on March 31, 2021 and Vi announced a loss of Rs 6,985.1 crore for the quarter ended March.
Vi also expects to raise up to $1 billion (around Rs 7,400 crore) from the sale of its fixed-line broadband subsidiary, optic fibre unit and data centres business, as it seeks to ease its cash crunch.
Given Vi\u2019s weak financial position, Apollo could even push Vi\u2019s promoters to make some capital infusion to boost its comfort level before taking the plunge, said another person aware of the talks. Both Vodafone Plc<\/a> and the Aditya Birla Group have so far refused to infuse any fresh equity into the struggling telco, and are likely to stick to their stance \u2014 at least for now.

Vi expects its total AGR payment dues \u2014 pegged around Rs 58,400 crore by DoT \u2014 to be halved if the claimed errors and omissions in calculation are set right by the government under directions from the Supreme Court. Its own assessment puts the dues just above Rs 21,000 crore.
A top banker familiar with Vi\u2019s latest fundraising efforts is upbeat. \"The telco won\u2019t go down as the government is averse to a duopoly telecom market,\" said the banker. Vi\u2019s lenders \"are receiving all their dues without even a single day\u2019s delay\", added the banker.
Vi has, however, warned of risks to viability that hinge on raising funds, successful negotiations with lenders on continued support, refinancing of debt and monetisation of certain assets.
In a recent letter to DoT secretary Anshu Prakash, Vi said the poor health of the telecom industry had hindered its efforts to raise Rs 25,000 crore via a mix of debt and equity \u2014 a plan announced last September.
Vi has also sought another year to make spectrum payments of Rs 8,292 crore on grounds that it isn\u2019t generating enough cash and that AGR payments have eaten into its liquidity.

Vi expects its total AGR payment dues \u2014 pegged around Rs 58,400 crore by DoT \u2014 to be halved if the claimed errors and omissions in calculation are set right by the government under directions from the Supreme Court. Its own assessment puts the dues just above Rs 21,000 crore.
A top banker familiar with Vi\u2019s latest fundraising efforts is upbeat. \"The telco won\u2019t go down as the government is averse to a duopoly telecom market,\" said the banker. Vi\u2019s lenders \"are receiving all their dues without even a single day\u2019s delay\", added the banker.
Vi has, however, warned of risks to viability that hinge on raising funds, successful negotiations with lenders on continued support, refinancing of debt and monetisation of certain assets.
In a recent letter to DoT secretary Anshu Prakash, Vi said the poor health of the telecom industry had hindered its efforts to raise Rs 25,000 crore via a mix of debt and equity \u2014 a plan announced last September.
Vi has also sought another year to make spectrum payments of Rs 8,292 crore on grounds that it isn\u2019t generating enough cash and that AGR payments have eaten into its liquidity.

<\/a><\/div>PE companies in early talks to invest in Vodafone Idea's optic fibre, data centre assets: Report<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/a><\/div>Cash-strapped Vodafone Idea looks to monetise assets to raise $1 billion<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/a><\/div>Vodafone Idea needs minimum Rs 70,000-crore equity funding, government relief to survive: Analysts<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/div>
Vi expects its total AGR payment dues \u2014 pegged around Rs 58,400 crore by DoT \u2014 to be halved if the claimed errors and omissions in calculation are set right by the government under directions from the Supreme Court. Its own assessment puts the dues just above Rs 21,000 crore.
A top banker familiar with Vi\u2019s latest fundraising efforts is upbeat. \"The telco won\u2019t go down as the government is averse to a duopoly telecom market,\" said the banker. Vi\u2019s lenders \"are receiving all their dues without even a single day\u2019s delay\", added the banker.
Vi has, however, warned of risks to viability that hinge on raising funds, successful negotiations with lenders on continued support, refinancing of debt and monetisation of certain assets.
In a recent letter to DoT secretary Anshu Prakash, Vi said the poor health of the telecom industry had hindered its efforts to raise Rs 25,000 crore via a mix of debt and equity \u2014 a plan announced last September.
Vi has also sought another year to make spectrum payments of Rs 8,292 crore on grounds that it isn\u2019t generating enough cash and that AGR payments have eaten into its liquidity.

<\/a><\/div>Cash-strapped Vodafone Idea looks to monetise assets to raise $1 billion<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/a><\/div>Vodafone Idea needs minimum Rs 70,000-crore equity funding, government relief to survive: Analysts<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/div>
Vi expects its total AGR payment dues \u2014 pegged around Rs 58,400 crore by DoT \u2014 to be halved if the claimed errors and omissions in calculation are set right by the government under directions from the Supreme Court. Its own assessment puts the dues just above Rs 21,000 crore.
A top banker familiar with Vi\u2019s latest fundraising efforts is upbeat. \"The telco won\u2019t go down as the government is averse to a duopoly telecom market,\" said the banker. Vi\u2019s lenders \"are receiving all their dues without even a single day\u2019s delay\", added the banker.
Vi has, however, warned of risks to viability that hinge on raising funds, successful negotiations with lenders on continued support, refinancing of debt and monetisation of certain assets.
In a recent letter to DoT secretary Anshu Prakash, Vi said the poor health of the telecom industry had hindered its efforts to raise Rs 25,000 crore via a mix of debt and equity \u2014 a plan announced last September.
Vi has also sought another year to make spectrum payments of Rs 8,292 crore on grounds that it isn\u2019t generating enough cash and that AGR payments have eaten into its liquidity.
