A consortium of lenders has approved term loan facilities totaling ₹1,500 crore for Tega Industries Limited. JSA Advocates & Solicitors served as the legal counsel for the lenders involved in this substantial financing transaction. The legal team from JSA was spearheaded by Partner Tirthankar Datta, with additional support from Partner Sucheta Bhattacharya, Senior Associate Ciol Kumar, and Associate Aaditya Shukla.
The funds are designated for Tega Industries’ acquisition of the Molycop Group from American Industrial Partners, a transaction valued at $1.45 billion. This significant acquisition is backed by several prestigious law firms including Argus, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co (SAM), Latham & Watkins, Khaitan & Co, Ropes & Gray, and Baker Botts, all of whom are playing roles in the consortium’s acquisition of Molycop.
This strategic move by Tega Industries marks a significant expansion in their business operations, as Molycop is a leading producer of forged steel grinding media used extensively in the mining industry. The acquisition is expected to bolster Tega Industries’ market position and operational capabilities globally.
