The company, controlled by billionaire Anil Ambani, intends to make partial redemption of bonds at face value. The bonds are currently trading at 32-37 per cent discount and the bondholders are proposed to be treated at par with other secured lenders, the company said in a regulatory filing.

RCom has also proposed reduction of coupon rate and extended the maturity period by eight years to 2028 for the bonds remaining after redemption, it added.
