NEW DELHI: Vijay Mallya has offered a Rs 4,000 crore settlement to banks that are seeking more than Rs 9,000 crore in dues that stem from loans made to Kingfisher Airlines, the carrier that he founded.
The 17-lender group led by State Bank of India will consider the offer before the next hearing on April 7. Mallya, currently in the UK, has been declared a wilful defaulter by lenders for failing to repay loans.
Mallya's lawyer CS Vaidyanathan argued that his presence wasn't required. He refused to give more details of the settlement saying that it would surcharge the atmosphere and harm public interest. Kingfisher AirlinesBSE 3.03 % stopped flying in 2012.
