The shares of Vodafone Idea touched a 52-week high at Rs 13.45 a piece in intraday trade, before paring gains to close at Rs 12.01, down 4.4% on the BSE. The Board's decision came after market hours. However, the total raising of funds under (a) and (b) above shall not exceed Rs. 25,000 crore," it added.
In a regulatory filing, Vodafone Idea said, We wish to inform you that the Board of Directors of the Company... approved the raising of funds though: (a) issue of equity shares or securities convertible into equity shares, Global Depository Receipts, American Depository Receipts, foreign currency convertible bonds, convertible debentures, warrants, composite issue of non-convertible debentures and warrants entitling the warrant holder(s) to apply for equity shares or a combination thereof up to an aggregate amount of Rs. 15,000 crore by way a public issue, preferential allotment, private placement, qualified institutions placement or through any other permissible mode in one or more tranches; and (b) issuance of unsecured and / or secured, non-convertible debentures up to an aggregate amount of Rs. 15,000 crore, by way of public offering or private placement basis or otherwise, in one or more tranches.
