“Lenders have approved sale of real estate asset RCom holds in Delhi and Chennai for ₹801 crore to Brookfield,” a source privy to the development told PTI on condition of anonymity.
When contacted RCom declined to comment on the development, while email query sent to Brookfield elicited no immediate reply.
The proceeds will be used for retiring debts, the source said.
