To reduce debt
The realty giant is trying to reduce its mounting debt, which stood at Rs.22,725 crore as on March 31, 2012. It could manage to reduce debt by a meagre Rs.33 crore in the January-March quarter this year. “The company's wholly-owned subsidiary, DLF Hotel Holdings Ltd., has divested its entire shareholding in Adone Hotels and Hospitality Ltd (Adone) for Rs.567 crore,” DLF said in a statement.
Adone's properties, which include land parcels in Chennai, Mysore, Kolkata and Thiruvananthapuram for hotel developments, were sold to a consortium of Avani Projects and Square Four Housing & Infrastructure Pvt Ltd, it added.
