New Delhi: Hours after the Supreme Court directed Sahara Group to make payment of Rs 24,000 crore to its investors within nine weeks, the company said it was ready to pay as per the directives.
In a statement issued by its lawyer on Wednesday, Sahara said it had offered to repay the holders of Optionally Fully Convertible Debentures (OFCDs). Sahara claimed that it had kept two pay orders ready.
