Suzlon in a clarification to BSE said Tuesday, "in response to certain media queries, we wish to further clarify that none of the shares of the promoters held in the company have been invoked.

"Further, the promoters' shareholding in the company has been pledged for collaterally securing the obligations of the lenders of the company and not towards securing promoters' personal borrowings. And the said pledge too is not mark-to-market."
In a separate clarification to BSE, Suzlon said, "we wish to clarify that the company is regular in servicing its debt obligations including servicing obligations towards banks and others for January 2019."
