"This has been a landmark transaction under which all the debt has been taken care of and is a truly win-win transaction where everyone is a winner. It was an extremely difficult and challenging transaction from an accountancy point of view," Jyotiraditya Scindia said.

"A number of legal processes also cropped up and all those had to be met under a certain deadline, so that was a big challenge, but we managed to do it all," he said. "I thank all the officials on both sides who worked so hard in the process and ensuring that this transaction is closed successfully. The credit goes to them," Scindia added.
