Titan’s board of directors announced that it has, “approved the proposal for raising of funds through the issuance of rated, listed, redeemable, unsecured NCDs,” according to a regulatory filing accessed by India Retailing. The Tata Group business is in the process of expanding its operations including opening brick-and-mortar stores across India for its numerous jewellery and watch brands.
