MUMBAI (Reuters) - Indian lender Bank of Baroda is facing a heavy debt restructuring pipeline on account of delays in projects, but it still expects to grow 3 to 4 percent above the industry growth in 2013/14, its chairman said.

It is facing debt restructuring of about 25 billion rupees in the June quarter.

"Going forward, restructuring is something we will be living with over a couple of quarters," Chairman S.S. Mundra told reporters.
