Lenders of Vodafone Idea (Vi) are urging the company's promoters to inject more equity in order to qualify for future loans. The recent ₹2,000 crore financial support offered by the promoters is deemed inadequate due to Vi's weak credit rating. The banks, led by State Bank of India (SBI), have advised that a larger equity infusion is necessary to compensate for the lower credit rating and instill confidence in lenders.
