Yes Bank takes possession
According to recent reports, Yes Bank took possession of Hotel Hyatt Regency building and a plot of land situated close to the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in the city, after its parent company Asian Hotel (West) defaulted on loan repayment of ₹267 crore.
In June this year, the company’s mounting debts, pending litigations, and the Covid-19 pandemic led to the closure of Hyatt Regency Mumbai’s parent company Asian Hotels (West). Just months before the company defaulted on multiple payments, it had applied for a one-time debt restructuring of its loans. The company’s total debt was ₹1,211.85 crore for FY20.
