Shares of Amtek Auto surged over 10%, amid heavy volumes, amid reports that the auto component major is close to reaching a solution with JP Morgan, which holds its non-convertible debentures worth Rs 200 crore.

The non-convertible debentures matured on September 20, but as Amtek Auto was facing a "cash flow mismatch", it was unable to make repayments to its investors, Business Standard reported. (CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL REPORT)
