Mumbai: Evonile Pharma Limited, formerly known as Novartis India Limited, has approved a proposal to raise funds of up to Rs 900 crore through a rights issue of partly paid-up equity shares.

The company’s Board of Directors approved the proposed fundraising at its meeting held on October 8. The issue will involve equity shares with a face value of ₹5 each and will be offered to eligible shareholders as of a record date yet to be determined and announced.
