In order to increase resources for ongoing capital expenditure, long term /short term working capital and for general corporate purpose, Mahindra and Mahindra to move the motion seeking shareholders' permission to raise funds in Annual general meeting on 10th Aug.

Company plans to raise INR 5,000 crore by offering securities, including but not limited to, non-convertible debentures and or commercial paper for an amount not exceeding Rs 5,000 crore.

It is to be noted that M&M received shareholders' approval to raise similar amount in last year's AGM (Aug 2015) but the company did not go ahead with fund raising plan due to undisclosed reasons.

Since the said approval is valid for a year, M&M again needs to approach shareholders to raise funds.
