Offers 35% stake to Govt at 10 Rs Valuation
The government will be 35.8% , Vodafone will hold 28.5% and Birla Group will hold 17.5% stake

Considering Equity Dilution and stake sale to Govt (means they don't have other investors to invest) : its negative for the company in longer term

Mehta submits directing telecom majors to pay the #AGR dues in one go will impact the interest of customers in so far as quality & services are concerned. Govt tells customers will suffer in case repercussions on telecom majors will have impact on consumers across the country.
#SupremeCourt asks SG what's the guarantee that telecom companies will abide with the time frame fixed. "How can you secure the sum? Undertakings won't suffice. Some may rather go to jail than paying up. How will you ensure payments".
