Tata Steel, which is the top producer of the alloy in the country, has been trying it pare its huge debt to lower interest costs and has a headroom to raise USD 3.2 billion for debt repayment through refinancing.

The company has to repay USD 5 billion worth of debt by the end of 2015. According to the balancesheet, the company has over USD 14.4 billion of bonds and loans outstanding.
