The Committee of Creditors (CoC) represents all the financial creditors to IL-FS Ltd, the holding company of the IL-FS Group. According to a release, CPPPL's financial bid was approved by more than 78 per cent of IL-FS's creditors, in terms of value, through an e-voting process that concluded on November 5. Sources said the outstanding debt for this business amounts to Rs 600-650 crore. The transaction marks the latest step towards overall resolution of debt totalling around Rs 94,000 crore.
