After surging 7.32 per cent to Rs 27.10 in intra-day trade at the BSE, shares of Suzlon finally ended at Rs 26.20, up 3.76 per cent from its previous close.

As per reports, Dilip Shanghvi will provide as much as Rs 3,800 crore (USD 610 million) of security for Suzlon Energy Ltd to help the maker of wind turbines fill orders and return to profit.
The security from the Shanghvi family will make it easier for Suzlon to obtain more bank guarantees and letters of credit to ramp up its business, it said.
