Debt-laden Jindal Steel & Power has failed to make payments towards the interest due on 11 non-convertible debentures it has, the due date of which was September 30, the company said in a BSE notification.
Of the 11 non-convertible debentures, most were carrying a coupon rate of 9.80 percent, said the notification.

The Delhi-based steel producer with consolidated net debt of Rs 44,000 crore as on March 31, 2016 has been struggling with diminishing operating profits for quite sometime now.
