"NINL strategic disinvestment transaction has been completed today with the transfer of 93.71 per cent shares of the joint venture partners to the Strategic Buyer, M/s Tata Steel Long products Ltd,” the ministry said on Monday.

The Rs 121 billion crore has been utilised for settlement of dues of employees, operational creditors, secured financial creditors and sellers (operational and financial dues) and for equity of selling shareholders, as per the share purchase agreement.
