					</table><p>The promoters of India-based wind energy solutions provider <a href="https://www.inoxwind.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inox Wind</a> have infused ₹6.2 billion (~$75.34 million) into the company to clear its debts, the company said in a BSE filing.</p>
<p>The company&#8217;s Board had approved a proposal to raise up to ₹8 billion (~$97.2 million) funds in August this year by issuing 0.01% non-convertible non-cumulative participating redeemable preference shares on a private placement basis to the promoters&#8217; group.</p>
<p>The company said that it used the funds to clear the advances it received from its parent company Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited (<a href="https://www.gfl.co.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GFL</a>), to set up wind power capacity.</p>
<p>CEO of Inox Wind, Kailash Tarachandani, said, &#8220;The fund infusion of ₹6.2 billion by promoters along with ₹7.4 billion (~$89.9 million) recently raised through the initial public offering of Inox Wind&#8217;s subsidiary Inox Green Energy Services Limited, will help the company pare down its consolidated interest-bearing liabilities substantially and help improve the profitability of both the operating companies significantly.”</p>
<p>&#8220;The turnaround in the wind sector led by the government&#8217;s initiatives to provide impetus to the sector will augur well in accelerating the company&#8217;s growth,” Tarachandani added.</p>
<p>Further, he said that the fund infusion by the promoters signals a strong conviction and faith that the promoters have in the company, which is equally motivated to deliver on the trust and confidence.</p>
<p>Last month, Inox Wind and its subsidiary Inox Green Energy Services <a href="https://mercomindia.com/inox-wind-inox-green-energy-repay-4-billion-debts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">repaid</a> loans worth ₹1.61 billion (~$19.56 million) and ₹2.5 billion (~$30.37 million), respectively, as part of a strategic initiative to deleverage the balance sheets. The company cleared the debts to reduce the corporate guarantees given by GFL.</p>
<p>In a bourse filing, the company had stated that both companies were in the process of reducing their debts, with Inox&#8217;s near-term goal being to deleverage all its operating entities.</p>
<p>In August this year, Gujarat-based power company Torrent Power <a href="https://mercomindia.com/torrent-power-acquires-50-mw-wind-inox-green/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acquired</a> 100% of Wind Two Renergy from Inox&#8217;s subsidiary Inox Green Energy Services for ₹325.1 million (~$3.95 million), representing 100% of the paid-up capital of Wind Two Renergy.</p>
