So far, there is no problem. The information that IDBI is recalling the loan is incorrect," he was quoted as saying.When contacted by Reuters, officials at both IDBI and Kingfisher declined to comment immediately.Kingfisher has borrowed around 30 billion rupees from several banks, such as State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, Bank of India, ICICI Bank and Axis Bank and has appointed SBI Capital Markets to restructure these loans, the paper said.(Reporting by Ketan Bondre & Aniruddha Basu; Editing by Harish Nambiar)(For more business news on Reuters Money visit http://www.reutersmoney.in)
