On the other hand, there is no clarity on the bidding process for the lenders in trouble, and hence they are likely to call for another round of bids seeking higher value for its assets. The bidders to DHFL include Adani Group, Piramal Enterprises, Oaktree and SC Lowy who have submitted 10-70 percent higher price for a stake in the company or buying out some of its assets.
