CHARTWELL ENTERPRISES: Former Officers Face Criminal Charges
------------------------------------------------------------
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has brought
criminal charges against two former officers of Chartwell
Enterprises Pty Ltd.

ASIC said on Tuesday that Ian Rau, a former company secretary of
Chartwell Enterprises, was arrested in Brisbane on August 11 and
criminally charged with 19 offenses brought by ASIC.

Mr. Rau was arrested by Queensland Police and conveyed to the
Brisbane Local Court where he was bailed to appear in the Geelong
Magistrates Court on September 11.

Graeme Hoy, a former director of Chartwell, was also criminally
charged on Tuesday with 22 offenses and summoned to appear in the
Geelong Magistrates Court on September 11.

ASIC said Chartwell allegedly traded investor funds on local and
global financial markets.

The company entered voluntary administration in April 2008 and was
placed into liquidation by creditors on April 22, 2008, allegedly
owing investors in excess of AU$60 million.

                    About Chartwell Enterprises

Based in Geelong, Australia, Chartwell Enterprises Pty Ltd was
founded by Ian Rau and Graeme Hoy.  Mr. Hoy also owns a
hospitality company which has recently been placed in
receivership.

The Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific reported on April 30,
2008, that administrators have been appointed to look into the
collapse of Chartwell Enterprises.  Bruno Secatore from Cor Cordis
Chartered Accountants was appointed as one of the administrators.
Mr. Secatore was later appointed as the company's liquidator.


FINCHLEY CENTRAL: ASIC Starts Civil Suit; Seeks to Wind Up Firm
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has commenced
civil proceedings in the Federal Court of Australia against
Finchley Central Funds Management Limited.

ASIC said it is seeking orders from the Court to have Finchley
wound up and a liquidator appointed to the company.

Finchley is the responsible entity of a registered managed
investment scheme known as Finchley Development Capital Funds
(FDCF).  Within FDCF there are two active trusts, which have
raised funds from retail investors:

   ** FDCF No. 2: 'The Gilead Trust', which presently has more
      than 600 members who have together invested in excess of
      AU$25 million, which has been on-lent as mezzanine finance
      to the developer of the Gilead Retirement Resort in
      New South Wales; and

   ** FDCF No. 3: 'The Riverside Trust', which presently has
      more than 300 members who have together invested in excess
      of AU$15 million, which has been on-lent as mezzanine
      finance to the developer of the Riverside Pier Hotel in
      Western Australia.

ASIC alleges that it is just and equitable that Finchley be wound
up by the Court because:

   ** Finchley and its officers have failed and continue to
      fail to comply with their obligations under the law; and

   ** a winding up order will allow FDCF, the Riverside Trust
      and the Gilead Trust to be overseen and supervised by an
      independent party which will assist in the protection of
      investors' interests.

ASIC said the commencement of proceedings has arisen from its
ongoing investigation into the conduct of Finchley and its
officers.

Australian-based Finchley Central Funds Management Limited --
http://www.finchley.com.au/-- formerly Kebbel Funds Management
Limited, is an unlisted public company and has an Australian
Financial Services Licence authorizing it to act as a Responsible
Entity for a number of registered Managed Investment Schemes
issued by Finchley Central, the funds management arm of the
Finchley Group.


GENERAL MOTORS: Holden Gets AU$200 Million Credit Line from EFIC

e-mailed statement, Bloomberg relates that the credit was extended

delighted to support GMH's ongoing export activities."

Bloomberg relates EFIC said the Australian government has approved
the credit.  The facility has been agreed but not drawn and is
subject to commercial terms and conditions, EFIC added.

ARVINMERITOR INC: Swings to US$162 Mil. Net Loss for June 30 Qtr
----------------------------------------------------------------
ArvinMeritor, Inc., reported financial results for its third
quarter ended June 30, 2009.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, ArvinMeritor posted
sales of US$993 million, down from US$1.9 billion, or 47%, from
the same period last year (42% excluding effects of foreign
currency). This decrease in sales is due to significantly lower
production volumes in most original equipment markets globally.

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009, was
US$162 million, or US$2.23 per diluted share, compared to net
income of US$44 million or US$0.60 per diluted share, in the third
quarter of fiscal year 2008.  Net loss includes losses from
discontinued operations of US$134 million or US$1.84 per diluted
share, primarily related to non-cash, after-tax charges of
approximately US$90 million associated with the divestiture of
several of the company's chassis businesses.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company posted a net
loss of US$1.02 billion compared to a net income of US$79 million
a year ago.

At June 30, 2009, the Company had US$2.62 billion in total assets,
including US$76 million in cash and cash equivalents.  At June 30,
the Company had these obligations:

     Short-term debt                   US$109,000,000
     Accounts payable                  US$671,000,000
     Other current liabilities         US$453,000,000
     Liabilities of discontinued
       operations                       US$87,000,000
     Long-term debt                  US$1,235,000,000
     Retirement benefits               US$617,000,000
     Other liabilities                 US$301,000,000
     Minority interests                 US$26,000,000

The Company swung to an US$872 million in Shareowners' deficit
from US$462 million Shareowners' equity at September 30, 2008.

Free cash flow was US$73 million in the third quarter, an increase
of US$211 million from the second fiscal quarter of this year.
This increase is due to continued reductions in working capital
levels, primarily in accounts receivable and inventory.

                  Divestiture of Wheels Business

On August 4, 2009, ArvinMeritor entered into a purchase and sale
agreement to divest the entirety of its Wheels business --
previously a division of the company's LVS segment -- to Iochpe-
Maxion, S. A. (Buyer), a Brazilian producer of wheels and frames
for commercial vehicles, railway freight cars and castings.  The
base purchase price is US$180 million; actual closing proceeds may
vary depending on taxes and the net cash or debt position of the
business at closing.

The closing and funding of the entire adjusted purchase price is
expected to be on or before September 23, 2009, prior to the end
of ArvinMeritor's fourth fiscal quarter.  The agreement also
requires certain true-up payments for working capital and other
miscellaneous adjustments, on a post-closing basis.

The completion of the transaction is subject to several
conditions, including the clearance or waiver of applicable
competition law waiting periods in the United States and Mexico,
and the fulfillment of Buyer's committed financing. The Buyer will
be pursuing corporate approvals, which are required under
Brazilian law.

                 Divestiture of Chassis Businesses

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, ArvinMeritor completed
the sale of its 51-percent stake in Gabriel de Venezuela,
substantially completed the sale of its Gabriel Ride Control
Products North America business and entered into a binding letter
of intent to sell its stake in Meritor Suspension Systems Company.
All of these businesses are included in the company's discontinued
operations for the third quarter.

The transactions largely complete the divestiture of Chassis
Systems, representing 72% of total Chassis revenue based on 2008
sales, including US$117 million of pass-through sales, and 87% of
value-added sales.

The remaining Chassis businesses operate near breakeven and
primarily support the company's suspension module assembly
business which is expected to run-off over the next two years as
various vehicle programs come to a conclusion.

                         New Business Wins

During the third quarter, ArvinMeritor announced a long-term
supply agreement with Navistar.  Effective July 13, Meritor axles
are now in standard position on International(R) medium-duty
trucks and IC Bus(TM) brand school and commercial buses.  In
addition, ArvinMeritor gains additional standard axle positions on
International's heavy-duty trucks.

The company also completed a multi-year agreement with Daimler
Trucks North America this quarter for the supply of axles, brakes
and drivelines.

In Asia Pacific, ArvinMeritor signed a supply agreement with
Yutong Group Co., Ltd., the largest producer of high-end buses and
coaches in the China market, to supply drivetrain components for
buses and coaches in China.  Production under this agreement is
expected to begin at the end of calendar year 2009.

                              Outlook

While market conditions remain depressed in North America and
Europe, South America and Asia Pacific continue to show signs of
improvement.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 (compared to the third
fiscal quarter of 2009), the company anticipates:

     -- Revenue to be slightly lower, due largely to seasonal
        Patterns;

     -- Loss per share, before special items, to be greater;

     -- Free cash flow, before factoring and restructuring, to be
        slightly negative;

     -- Total free cash flow to be negative

"While we anticipate market conditions will remain tough through
our fourth fiscal quarter, we are taking appropriate actions that
should help offset the impact and allow us to remain in compliance
with our year-end credit line financial covenant," said Chairman,
CEO and President Chip McClure.  "We will continue to proactively
manage working capital levels, execute key initiatives and reduce
costs, while at the same time positioning the company for a
recovery in our key markets."

CHEMTURA CORP: U.S. Court Approves Contributions to Foreign Units
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Chemtura Corp. obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court to make
intercompany loans or capital contributions to their non-Debtor
foreign subsidiaries up to the limitations set under Amendment No.
2 to the DIP Credit Facility.  The Debtors also ask the Court to
determine whether the DIP Lenders will derive a benefit from the
capital contribution sought to be made by the Debtors.

The Debtors relate that as of the end of June 2009, they have
made intercompany loans, totaling US$450,000, to the Foreign
Subsidiaries.

According to Richard M. Cieri, Esq., at Kirkland & Ellis LLP, in
New York, the Foreign Subsidiaries represent a significant
element of the Debtors' enterprise value and the success of the
Debtors' restructuring efforts is closely tied to the fate of the
Foreign Subsidiaries.  He notes that of the Debtors' US$3.5
billion
in net sales in 2008, approximately 52% are attributable to
customers located outside of the United States; 32% to customers
in Europe and Africa; 15% to customers in Asia Pacific; and 5% to
customers in Latin America.

Mr. Cieri notes that the Debtors are currently seeking approval
of an Amendment No. 2 to their DIP Credit Facility, which among
other things provide greater flexibility to the Debtors' ability
to provide critical funding to the Foreign Subsidiaries by
allowing US$10 million of the US$40 million foreign investment
basket
to be made as equity advances, rather than loans.

The Debtors thus seek Court authorization to utilize the further
modified Foreign Investment Basket to the extent necessary to
access intercompany loans to meet immediate and urgent liquidity
needs of the Foreign Subsidiaries or to make capital
contributions to ensure that the Foreign Subsidiaries are
adequately capitalized to be permitted to operate under
applicable non-U.S. law.

According to Mr. Cieri, the Foreign Subsidiaries continue to
experience liquidity needs and therefore, the modifications to
the Foreign Investment Basket provide a valuable benefit to the
Debtors.  He adds that not only do some Foreign Subsidiaries
continue to require access to liquidity, but in some instances a
Foreign Subsidiary's needs must be met in the form of contributed
capital rather than debt in order to comply with applicable non-
U.S. law.

In order to balance the Debtors' need to access the Foreign
Investment Basket and the interest of the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors in monitoring its use, the Debtors propose
these uniform procedures and limitations to govern capital
contributions to be made to the Foreign Subsidiaries:

  a. The Debtors will be authorized to make a capital
     contribution to a Foreign Subsidiary without further order
     of the Court up to an amount aggregating US$2 million.

  b. For each Foreign Subsidiary in which the Debtors' Capital
     Contribution will exceed US$2 million, the Debtors will
     provide the Committee with:

        (i) the identity of the Foreign Subsidiary;

       (ii) a brief description of the Debtors' business
            justification for making the Capital Contribution;

      (iii) the most recent unaudited balance sheet for the
            Foreign Subsidiary in which the Debtors seek to make
            the Capital Contribution; and

       (iv) any other information reasonably requested by the
            Committee.

  c. The Committee will provide the Debtors with the names of at
     least two and no more than three persons who will receive
     the Foreign Investment Information.  The Foreign Investment
     Information may be sent by electronic mail.

  d. The Committee will have through 5:00 p.m. prevailing
     Eastern Time on the second business day after receipt of
     the Foreign Investment Information to review the
     information and notify the Debtors of any issue it may have
     with respect to the proposed Capital Contribution.

  e. If the Committee does not notify the Debtors of an Issue by
     the expiration of the Review Period, the Debtors will be
     permitted to make the Capital Contribution.

  f. If, however, the Committee raises an issue with respect to
     the proposed Capital Contribution before the expiration of
     the Review Period, the Debtors will use their best efforts
     to provide promptly the Committee with supplemental
     information with respect the Capital Contribution.

  g. The Committee will have through 5:00 p.m. prevailing
     Eastern Time on the second business day after receipt of
     the Supporting Documents to conduct a supplemental review
     and notify the Debtors as to whether it consents to the
     proposed Capital Contribution.

  h. If the Committee has not consented to the payment of a
     Capital Contribution by the expiration of the Supplemental
     Review Period, the Debtors will not make the requested
     Capital Contribution without further order of the Court.
     The Debtors will be permitted to seek expedited review by
     the Court with respect to any disputed Capital
     Contribution.

US$9,964,948 as of June 30, 2009.  Working capital at June 30,
2009, was US$10,914,273.

The Company also said that there is substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company
said that it has sufficient cash to continue its current business
through June 30, 2010, due to expected increased sales revenue and
net income from operations.  However, the Company has suffered
recurring losses in the past and have a large accumulated deficit.
The Company took certain restructuring steps to provide the
necessary capital to continue its operations.  These steps
included: (1) acquisition of profitable operations through
issuance of equity instruments; and (2) seeking of additional
funding and restructuring the acquired subsidiaries to increase
profits and minimize the liabilities.

in cash and stock; the following year, it sold Galaxy View for
US$3 million.  The Company is headquartered in Shenzhen,
Guangdong, Republic of China.


SYNUTRA INT'L: In Default Under ABN AMRO Loan Covenants
-------------------------------------------------------
Synutra International, Inc., said as of June 30, 2009, the Company
was not in compliance with certain covenants of its loan agreement
with one of its lenders, ABN AMRO Bank, N.V., Hong Kong branch,
which was acquired by Royal Bank of Scotland.  The Company is
currently in discussions with the lenders on a waiver and is
unable to predict when, or if the waiver will be granted.

To maintain sufficient funds for its operations, the Company has
postponed the payment of certain accounts payables and has
negotiated with certain suppliers to extend payment terms beyond
the customary terms.

In light of these issues, Synutra is in discussions with local
domestic banks to obtain short term financing to support its
operational needs.  As of June 30, 2009, it had short-term
borrowings from local banks of US$241.40 million with a weighted
average interest rate of 3.51%.  The loans were secured by the
pledge of certain fixed assets held by the Company's subsidiaries,
the pledge of land use rights in Qingdao, China and the pledge of
necessary cash deposits which were recorded as restricted cash.
The maturity dates of the short-term loans from local banks
outstanding at June 30, 2009 range from July 2009 to June 2010.
To date, all outstanding short-term loans that have become due
have been repaid.

As of June 30, 2009, Synutra also had unsecured long-term
borrowings from domestic banks of US$16.1 million maturing from
November 2011 to June 2012 with a weighted average interest rate
of 5.4%.  In addition to the loans from domestic banks, it has
short-term loans from related parties totaling US$6.60 million
with a weighted average interest rate of 8.1% to finance its
acquisition of the Helanruniu trademarks and to support its normal
operating needs.  The maturity dates of the short-term loans
outstanding from related parties at June 30, 2009, are from
October 2009 to January 2010.

As a result of the Company's operating losses and negative cash
flows and its failure to meet its debt covenants, the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K included an unqualified audit opinion
in which Synutra's independent registered public accounting firm,
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu CPA Ltd. included an explanatory
paragraph expressing substantial doubt regarding Synutra's ability
to continue as a "going concern" in its report on Synutra's
financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

Liang Zhang, Chairman and CEO of Synutra, said, "The Company has
assets -- including approximately US$145 million in property,
plant and equipment -- that could play a role in possible
solutions to its current liquidity issues.  I would also like to
stress that Synutra's management believes in placing shareholder
interests first and is considering strategic financing options to
both support the Company while enhancing shareholder value.  This
was a challenging first quarter following an extraordinarily
difficult fiscal year, but we remain confident in our belief in
Synutra's core business, which still produces nearly US$190
million in annualized sales, despite the events of 2008."

On Tuesday, the Company reported revenues for the first fiscal
quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled US$47.35 million, down 62.8%
from US$127.38 million in the prior first quarter.  The drop
reflected in part the lingering impact of the product recall the
Company carried out following the September 2008 discovery of
melamine in products of 22 Chinese formula producers, including
some lots of Synutra's U-Smart products.  In addition, the
distribution of free replacements for recalled products created an
inventory glut in the sales channels that is shrinking but still
present and this contributed to the depressed sales during the
June 2009 quarter.  The Company conducted the recall last fall to
demonstrate its resolve to protect the safety and wellbeing of
customers.  The absence of its products from shelves (for the
duration before product replacement completed) had resulted in the
loss of customers, especially for the U-Smart product line.

The operating loss for the June 2009 quarter was US$10.57 million,
compared to operating profit of US$19.45 million a year earlier.
Net loss for the June 2009 quarter was US$9.95 million, or US$0.18
per fully diluted share, compared to net income of US$15.64
million, or US$0.29 per fully diluted share for the same quarter a
year earlier.

Synutra reported cash and cash equivalents of US$29.58 million on
June 30, 2009, compared to US$37.74 million on March 31, 2009.
Working capital was negative at US$83.74 million, compared to
negative working capital of US$80.43 million three months earlier.
Long-term debt at the end of June 2009 was US$16.10 million,
compared to US$8.78 million at the end of March. The working
capital deficit was caused primarily by the product recall
expenses, including product replacement cost; shipping charges and
inventory write-down and write-off, as well as the subsequent loss
of sales.

GOME ELECTRICAL: High Court Freezes Former Chairman's Assets
------------------------------------------------------------
The Financial Times reports that Hong Kong's High Court has
ordered an interim injunction to freeze HK$1.66 billion (US$214.2
million) of assets held by Huang Guangyu, the former chairman of
Gome Electrical Appliances.

The Securities and Futures Commission alleges Mr. Huang and his
wife Du Juan, organized a share repurchase by Gome in early 2008
to buy shares originally held by Mr. Huang, the report says.
According to the FT, the SFC said the scheme, which raised HK$2.2
billion, helped Mr. Huang repay a HK$2.4 billion personal loan.
The share buy-back had a negative impact on Gome's financial
position and was not in the best interests of the company,
according to the SFC.

"[We allege] this transaction was a fraud or deception in a
transaction involving securities and caused a loss of about HK$1.6
billion to Gome and its shareholders," the report quoted the SFC
as saying.

The FT recalls that Hong Kong's High Court last week ordered
Mr. Huang and Ms. Du, who together own 34% of Gome, not to dispose
of or trade in their shares in the company worth up to HK$1.66
billion, pending the conclusion of an SFC investigation and to
ensure there are sufficient assets to satisfy any restoration or
compensation orders.

Mr. Huang, the founder of Gome and at one point listed as China's
richest man, has been detained by mainland authorities since
November 2008 as part of a probe into alleged share manipulation
and illegal trading, the FT discloses.

Gome said on Friday it was not a defendant to the court order and
the assets of the company were not subject to it, the report
notes.

The SFC is seeking an order to require the couple to pay damages
to Gome, the FT adds.  The court will hear the case on Sept. 8.

AMBICA AGRICO: CRISIL Reaffirms 'BB-' Rating on INR90MM Term Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its rating of 'BB-/Stable/P4' to the bank
facilities of Ambica Agrico Exports Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                             Ratings
   ----------                             -------
   INR40 Million Cash Credit Facility*    BB-/Stable (Reaffirmed)
   INR90 Million Term Loan                BB-/Stable (Reaffirmed)
   INR70 Million Export Packing Credit    P4 (Reaffirmed)
   INR50 Million Foreign Bill Purchase    P4 (Reaffirmed)

   *Including a proposed limit of INR20 Million.

The rating reflects Ambica Agrico's weak financial risk profile,
small scale of operations in the rice industry, and exposure to
risks relating to unfavourable changes in government policies,
fluctuations in the prices of raw materials, and vagaries in the
monsoons.  These weaknesses are, however, partially offset by the
benefits that the company derives from the promoter's experience
in the rice business, and the healthy growth prospects for the
rice industry.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL expects Ambica Agrico's financial risk profile to remain
stretched over the medium term, owing to the working capital-
intensive nature of its operations, and its scale of operations to
remain small over the near term.  The outlook may be revised to
'Positive' if the company enhances its capital structure and scale
of operations considerably.  Conversely, the outlook may be
revised to 'Negative' if the company faces pressure on
profitability, or further deterioration in its capital structure.

                        About Ambica Agrico

Set up in 1983 as a proprietorship firm, by Mr. Ishwar Chand Goel,
Ambica Agrico was converted to a private limited company in
November, 2006.  The company mills, processes, and sells basmati
rice.  Its plant at Taraori, Karnal (Haryana) currently has an
installed milling capacity, and grading and sorting capacity of 2
tonnes per hour (tph), and 4 tph, respectively.  The company also
purchases semi-processed rice from smaller mills in the area, and
sorts it before exporting the same.  The company is setting up an
8-tph fully-integrated paddy milling, processing, grading and
sorting plant, after dismantling its old plant.

Ambica Agrico reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR7.7 million
on net sales of INR693 million for the year ended March 31, 2009,
as against a PAT of INR1.5 million on net sales of INR303 million
for the year ended March 31, 2008.


FIREPRO SYSTEMS: CRISIL Cuts Ratings on Various Facilities to 'P5'
------------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its ratings on the bank facilities of
Firepro Systems Pvt Ltd. to 'D/P5' from 'BBB/Stable/P3+'.

   Facilities                         Ratings
   ----------                         -------
   INR2517 Million Cash Credit        D (Downgraded from
                                         BBB/Stable)
   INR725 Million Bank Guarantee      P5 (Downgraded from P3+)
   INR75 Million Buyer Credit Limits  P5 (Downgraded from P3+)
   INR1540 Million Letter of Credit   P5 (Downgraded from P3+)

The downgrade reflects devolvements of letters of credit, and
overdues beyond 30 days, because of weak liquidity; the company's
liquidity is constrained on account of mismatches in its cash
flows, caused by continuing delays in realization of receivables.

Incorporated in 1992, FSPL initially sourced and supplied fire
safety and protection equipment, before moving into supply of
intelligent solutions for larger environments.  FSPL now sources
and supplies safety management, access control, and automated
response systems.  Its end-user sectors include technology parks,
residential estates, malls, and multiplexes.  FSPL operates
through 14 offices across India, and in the international markets
through offices in Dubai, Melbourne, and Singapore.


GLOBION INDIA: CRISIL Assigns 'BB' Rating on INR60MM Cash Credit
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its ratings of 'BB/Stable/P4' to the bank
facilities of Globion India Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                          Ratings
   ----------                          -------
   INR430.70 Million Long Term Loan    BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR60.00 Million Cash Credit        BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR25.00 Million Bank Guarantee     P4 (Assigned)
   INR60.00 Million Letter of Credit   P4 (Assigned)

The ratings are constrained by the company's exposure to project
implementation risks, and its below-average financial risk
profile.  These weaknesses are partially offset by the strong
support that Globion receives from its parent, Suguna Poultry Farm
Ltd (SPFL; rated 'BBB/Negative/P3+' by CRISIL).

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that Globion will complete its ongoing project
without considerable time and cost overruns.  The outlook may be
revised to 'Positive' if Globion completes the project
successfully, thereby enhancing its capacity utilization levels
and improving the cash accruals, or if SPFL's credit risk profile
improves significantly.  Conversely, the outlook may be revised to
'Negative' if Globion faces time or cost overruns in the execution
of its project, reports low profitability, or if SPFL's credit
risk profile deteriorates materially.

                       About Globion India

Incorporated in October 2006, Globion is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of SPFL, and plans to manufacture live and inactivated veterinary
vaccines, mainly catering to the poultry segment in India.  Its
manufacturing facility, being set up at Biotech Park in Medak
District, Andhra Pradesh, is expected to begin commercial
operations by October 2009.


MAYTAS INFRA: Andhra Pradesh Gov't. to Review Port Project
----------------------------------------------------------
The Economic Times reports that the Andhra Pradesh government will
review the INR1,590-crore Machilipatnam port project which is
being executed by Maytas Infra, the company promoted by the
defamed founder of Satyam Computer Services B Ramalinga Raju and
his family.

The report says the company's failure to achieve financial closure
has triggered the review of the concession agreement, signalling
more trouble for Maytas Infra that is struggling to stay afloat.

Going by the concession agreement, says the Times, financial
closure was to be achieved by April, 2009.

As reported in the TCR-AP on Feb. 20, 2009, the Financial Express
said the government called on the Company Law Board to supercede
the present boards of Maytas Infra Ltd and Maytas Properties Ltd.
"In order to prevent further acts of fraud against the said
companies (two Maytas companies) and to safeguard operations of
these companies in public interest, the government has moved the
CLB to remove the existing directors of these companies," the
Financial Express quoted Corporate Affairs Minister Prem Chand
Gupta as saying.

The Hindu Busines Line related that the application to the CLB was
based on the information given by the Serious Fraud Investigation
Office, which showed that the present management of the two
companies had worked with fraudulent intent, breached
stakeholders' trust, persistently neglected its obligations and
functions 'to the serious detriment of the business and operations
of these two companies and stakeholders'.  According to the Hindu
Business Line, the board of Maytas Infra comprises Dr. R. P. Raju
(Independent director), Mr. B. Teja Raju (Vice- Chairman and son
of Mr B. Ramalinga Raju), and Mr. B. Narasimha Rao (who was
inducted on January 30, 2009).

                     Receivership Application

As reported in the TCR-AP on Feb. 18, 2009, India Infoline, citing
a report, said the Bombay High Court rejected an application made
by IDBI Bank and ICICI Bank seeking appointment of a court
receiver to oversee the administration of Maytas Infra Limited.
According to Infoline, Maytas is carrying out 62 infrastructure
projects and has Rs40.45 billion debt outstanding, in term loans
and working capital facilities from various banks.  Infoline said
Maytas's financial health and its ability to complete the ongoing
projects is crucial for the banks.  On February 9, Infoline said a
High Court judge refused to grant ad-interim relief sought by the
two banks.

                       About Maytas Infra

Maytas Infra Limited -- http://www.maytasinfra.com/-- is an
India-based construction and infrastructure developer.  The
Company is primarily engaged in the business of construction of

transportation, which includes roads and railways; water projects;
buildings and structures, and energy. Its infrastructure business
is also classified into four sub-segments: power, ports, roads and

RBA TEXTILES: CRISIL Rates INR284.3 Million Long Term Loan at 'BB'
------------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its ratings of 'BB/Stable/P4' to the bank
facilities of RBA Textiles Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                         Ratings
   ----------                         -------
   INR284.3 Million Long Term Loan    BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR147.8 Million Cash Credit       BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR12.5 Million Bank Guarantee     P4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect RTPL's commodity nature of business and
vulnerability of margins to volatility in cotton prices coupled
with limited track record of the promoters in cotton yarn
business.  The weaknesses are mitigated by the benefits that RTPL
derives from strong business background of the promoter and
support from group companies.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that RTPL will maintain a stable credit profile on
the back of strong business background of the promoter.  The
outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case the company is able
to demonstrate significantly higher than expected volumes
alongwith improvement in operating margins and debt protection
measures.  Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if
RTPL undertakes significant debt funded capital expenditure
resulting in deterioration in debt protection measures or
significantly lower than expected cash accruals.

                         About RBA Textiles

RTPL, incorporated in 2006 by Mr. Narendra Kumar Agarwal, is
engaged in the manufacture of cotton yarn.  The company commenced
its commercial production in November 2008.  RTPL's manufacturing
facility of 25200 spindles is located at Kuppam, District Chittoor
(Andhra Pradesh).  RTPL reported a net loss of INR60 million on
net sales of INR37.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2009.


SATYAM COMPUTER: L&T Plans to Sell More Than 8% Stake in Firm
-------------------------------------------------------------
Larsen & Toubro said it is yet to take any decision on selling its
over 8% stake in Mahindra Satyam, formerly known as Satyam
Computer Services Ltd,  but had sought market regulator SEBI's
approval for offloading the holding in the IT company, the Press
Trust of India reports.

According to the news agency, market regulator SEBI has prevented
bidders for Satyam from selling their stake in the firm for six
months from the date of signing of the final sale agreement to
avoid volatility in the scrip movement.

"We have approached SEBI to give us a waiver under the standstill
agreement, but not taken any decision to sell the stake," an L&T
spokesperson told PTI.

The spokesperson, as cited by the PTI, said L&T would need to hold
the stake in Mahindra Satyam at least till mid-October as per the
standstill pact.

Larsen & Toubro Limited is a technology, engineering, construction
and manufacturing company based in Mumbai, India.

                          Fraud Revelation

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific, on
January 7, 2009, former Satyam Chairman Ramalinga Raju resigned
after saying he manipulated the company's accounts.  Specifically,
Mr. Raju said that as of September 30, 2008, the company's balance
sheet carries:

  (1) inflated (non existent) cash and bank
      balances of 50.40 billion rupees (US$1.04 billion)
      (as against 53.61 billion reflected in the books);

  (2) an accrued interest of 3.76 billion rupees which
      is non existent;

  (3) an understated liability of 12.30 billion rupees
      on account of funds arranged by Mr. Raju; and

  (4) an overstated debtors position of
      4.90 billion rupees (as against 26.51 billion
      reflected in the books).

Mr. Raju's confession prompted investigations into the company by
different entities including Andhra Pradesh state police, the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission and the Securities and Exchange
Board of India.  Several groups also considered filing class
action suits against the company.

A three-member board was subsequently created by the government
which appointed KPMG and Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu for re-
evaluation of the software company's books.

Mr. Raju was later found to have invented more than one quarter
of Satyam's workforce and used fictitious names to siphon INR200
million (US$4.1 million) a month out of the company.

The TCR-AP reported on March 9, 2009, that Satyam won approval to
sell stake in itself, as the company seeks to restore investor
confidence and stem client defections.

Satyam said it received approval from the Securities and Exchange
Board of India to facilitate a global competitive bidding process
which, subject to receipt of all approvals, contemplates the
selection of an investor to acquire a 51% interest in the company.

On April 14, 2009, the TCR-AP reported that Tech Mahindra Limited
emerged as the top bidder with an offer of INR58 a share for a 31
per cent stake in Satyam Computer Services Limited, beating strong
rival L&T.  Tech Mahindra would acquire the stake in an all-cash
deal, followed by an open offer for a 20 percent stake to take
management control of the company.

On June 21, 2009, Satyam unveiled its new brand identity,
"Mahindra Satyam."

Burdale does not form part of JLR's applications to the UK
Government's Automotive Assistance program, for which negotiations

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
March 27, 2009, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its
corporate credit rating on India-based automaker Tata Motors Ltd.
to 'B+' from 'BB-'.  The rating remains on CreditWatch with
negative implications, where it was placed on Dec. 12, 2008.  At
the same time, S&P lowered its issue rating on the company's
senior unsecured notes to 'B+' from 'BB-' and also kept the rating
on CreditWatch with negative implications.

S&P said the rating action follows material deterioration in Tata
Motors' cash flows and related metrics on a consolidated basis,
derived from an adverse operating environment, which, combined
with significantly high debt levels, will affect its credit
protection measures beyond those consistent with a 'BB' rating
category.

On June 4, 2009, Moody's Investors Service affirmed the B3
corporate family rating of Tata Motors Ltd.  The outlook on the
rating is changed to stable from negative.

NATIXIS STRUCTURED: Moody's Withdraws Ratings on JPY3 Bil. Notes

Moody's Investors Service announced it has withdrawn its ratings
of one class of notes issued by Natixis Structured Products Ltd.

The rating action is:

ORIX-NRL TRUST: S&P Downgrades Ratings on Various Certificates
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on the
class C to H trust certificates issued under the ORIX-NRL Trust 14
transaction and removed the ratings from CreditWatch with negative
implications.  The rating on the class C trust certificates was
initially placed on CreditWatch on July 6, 2009; the ratings on
classes D and E were initially placed on CreditWatch on Feb. 5,
2009, while the ratings on classes F to H were initially placed on
CreditWatch on November 19, 2008.  Meanwhile, Standard & Poor's
also affirmed its ratings on classes A, B, and X issued under the
same transaction.

Standard & Poor's reviewed the repayment prospects of about 100
loans (total outstanding loan balance: about JPY660 billion)
backing rated CMBS transactions that are due to mature by the end
of August 2010.  Following the review, on July 6, 2009, S&P placed
the ratings on 93 tranches of 23 CMBS transactions, including
those on class C of ORIX-NRL Trust 14, on CreditWatch with
negative implications.

Two of the transaction's underlying loans (representing a combined
19.6% or so of the initial issuance amount of the trust
certificates) have defaulted.  The servicer has formulated a
collection plan relating to the collateral properties that back
the two defaulted loans, and recovery procedures are in progress.
In addition, one of the specified bonds relating to this
transaction (representing about 8.9% of the initial issuance
amount of the trust certificates) is a "loan considered to be in
default", as stated in the aforementioned report, and the loan is
due to mature by the end of August 2010.  Accordingly, Standard &
Poor's has reviewed the property management report for the
property backing the specified bond and interviewed the asset
manager about the specified bond.

S&P downgraded classes C to H because: (1) S&P lowered its
assumption with respect to the recovery amount from the collateral
properties relating to the two defaulted loans after examining the
servicer's collection plan; (2) S&P see a risk that the specified
bond may not be redeemed on the maturity date, in light of the
level of leverage in relation to this bond.  Accordingly, S&P
lowered its estimate regarding the recovery prospects of the
property backing the specified bond, in light of its location,
type, and specifications in the context of current real estate
market circumstances, based on the possibility that the specified
bond may not be redeemed and the property may need to be
liquidated.

Standard & Poor's intends to continue to monitor progress in the
implementation of the servicer's collection plan and the repayment
of the aforementioned loans and specified bond, as well as the
performance and recovery prospects of the related collateral
properties.

S&P is considering amending the rating methodology for interest-
only certificates, which include class X of this transaction.  If
the proposal is adopted, it could affect the rating on class X.
At this point, however, Standard & Poor's has affirmed its rating
on class X.

This is a multi-borrower CMBS transaction.  The trust certificates
were initially secured by 10 nonrecourse loans and specified bonds
(tokutei shasai) extended to eight obligors, which were originally
backed by 39 real estate certificates and real estate properties.
The transaction was arranged by ORIX Corp., and ORIX Asset
Management & Loan Services Corp. is the transaction servicer.

JEJU EUTTEUM: Operations Suspended by FSC for Six Months

The Financial Services Commission suspended operation of Jeju
Eutteum Savings Bank, a privately owned savings bank on Jeju
island, in South Korea, for six months as the money lender failed
to meet capital adequacy requirements, Sangim Han at Bloomberg
News reports.

According to the report, the financial regulator said Jeju
Eutteum's shareholders should invest more capital in the bank
within two months to improve finances and continue operations.

The bank has KRW528.5 billion (US$428 million) of assets as of
March 31, 0.7% of South Korea's mutual savings industry, Bloomberg
notes.


SSANGYONG MOTOR: Gov't. May Offer Help if a Buyer is Found
----------------------------------------------------------
The South Korean government has decided to help Ssangyong Motor
Co. only if there is a new buyer willing to make a meaningful
investment, Yonyap News Agency reports, citing an official source.

According to the report, the source at the Ministry of Knowledge
Economy said the stance reflects predictions by experts that even
if the carmaker begins production this week after a 77-day strike,
it may not be able to survive on its own in the face of weak
demand.

"If there is a new buyer and if it outlines far reaching
investment plans to get Ssangyong back on its feet, the government
could consider devising ways to offer support," Yonhap News quoted
the official, who declined to be identified, as saying.

The news agency, citing industry insiders, meanwhile says that
during the protracted strike, three to four foreign carmakers in
Russia and India expressed interest in buying the company although
none have outlined plans for investment.

The Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific said Jan. 12, 2009,
that Ssangyong filed for receivership with the Seoul Central
District Court to stave off a complete collapse.  On Feb. 6, 2009,
the TCR-AP reported the Seoul Central District Court accepted
Ssangyong's application to rehabilitate under court protection.
The court named former Hyundai Motor Co. executive Lee Yoo-il and
Ssangyong executive Park Young-tae to run the automaker.

The TCR-AP, citing The Auto Channel, reported on May 25, 2009,
that a South Korean court approved Ssangyong Motor's restructuring
plan.  The Auto Channel said the court confirmed a Samil
PricewaterhouseCoopers assessment that the manufacturer had a
greater value as a going concern than its liquidated value,
and ordered Ssangyong to submit its full restructuring plan by
mid-September.

Unionized workers at Ssangyong Motor launched on May 22 a full
strike against the company's massive job-cut plan as part of a
restructuring plan.  Ssangyong won permission to enter bankruptcy
protection in return for conducting restructuring that calls for
36 percent of its workforce, or 2,646 employees, to be cut,
according to The Korea Herald.  Since then, some 1,670 workers
have left the company through voluntary retirement, while the
remaining 976 workers have gone on strike, the Herald said.

A TCR-AP report on Aug. 7 said that Ssangyong Motor reached an
agreement with its union on job cuts, ending displaced workers'
takeover of the company's main factory.  Court-ordered trustee Lee
Yoo-il said the two sides agreed to slash 52% of the 976 striking
workers while the rest will be put on unpaid leave.

NIKKO ELECTRONICS: SC Considers Proposed Exemption
--------------------------------------------------
Nikko Electronics Berhad disclosed in a regulatory filing that it
has made an application to the Securities Commission to exempt the
obligations of Ch'ng Chiap Kang and Ng Ai Choo to undertake a
mandatory general offer for all the remaining ordinary shares in
IMG Incorporated Sdn Bhd not already owned by the Impian Vendors
under Practice Note 2.9.1 of the Malaysian Code on Take-Overs and
Mergers 1998.

The Securities Commission said on July 29 that it would consider
the Company's proposed exemption upon the fulfillment of these
conditions:

   (i) Approval from the independent holders of voting
       shares of NIKKO/IMG, on a poll in a general meeting
       in which the interested parties are to abstain from
       voting.  The result of the poll has to be confirmed
       by an independent auditor;

  (ii) Provision of competent independent advice to the
       shareholders of NIKKO/IMG regarding the Proposed
       Exemption.  The appointment of the independent
       adviser and the independent adviser's circular
       to the shareholders are to be first approved
       and consented by the SC;

(iii) The Impian Vendors are to submit declarations (to be
       furnished after the general meeting) addressed to
       the SC, attesting that they have not purchased shares
       in NIKKO/IMG subsequent to the discussion in relation
       to the Proposed Restructuring Scheme until the date
       of the said declarations and further undertake not to
       acquire any shares in NIKKO/IMG until the granting of
       the Proposed Exemption by the SC; and

   iv) The Impian Vendors/MIMB are required to provide
       reasons for the substantial percentage of votes
       that are against and have abstain (excluding the
       abstinence by the interested parties) on the
       Proposed Exemption.

                          *     *     *

On June 30, 2008, Nikko Electronics Bhd. was classified as an
affected listed issuer under Practice Note 1/2001 (PN1/2001) of
the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad
because it had defaulted on a bankers' acceptance facility due
on June 27, 2008, for an amount of MYR1,457,084 due to Malayan
Banking Berhad.  Nikko is unable to repay the liability to the
bank due to the difficult cash flow position as a result of the
contraction in the remote-control toys industry.

The company had been loss-making and its ventures to manufacture
new products had also failed to make a profitable contribution
to it.  Nikko will also be suspending its business activities to
prevent incurring further losses.

Allied Banking Corp. will sell its 28% stake in Oceanic Bank
Holdings to a third party to clear the way for its merger with

DUBAI ISLAMIC: Moody's Reviews D+ BFSR for Possible Downgrade
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed the ratings of four banks in the
United Arab Emirates on review for possible downgrade reflecting
the rising challenges facing the sector, chiefly triggered by the
stressed domestic property market (especially in Dubai), as well
as the economic slowdown forecast for 2009 with a modest recovery
in 2010.

The four banks affected are Emirates Bank International and
National Bank of Dubai (currently merging into Emirated NBD),
MashreqBank and Dubai Islamic Bank.  In all cases, their bank
financial strength ratings and long-term debt and deposit ratings
were placed on review for possible downgrade and short-term
ratings affirmed.  See details of ratings affected below.

Moody's anticipates that the pressures facing the UAE banking
system will result in rising corporate defaults as well as an
increase in delinquencies from retail lending -- especially among
unsecured credits.  However, the rating agency acknowledges that
the rated banks have responded to the expected deterioration in
asset quality by increasing their provisioning levels and
improving their Tier 1 capital ratios during the first two
quarters of 2009.

The UAE banking system is largely government-owned or controlled
and much of the capital improvement has been through the provision
of external support (i.e. government injections of Tier 1 capital
notes) aimed at ensuring the banks are better prepared for both
expected and unexpected levels of loan losses.

"Moody's stress tests of the rated UAE banks' portfolios -- under
both a base-case and a more adverse (or stressed) scenario -- have
indicated that the Abu Dhabi-based banks are more resilient.  This
primarily reflects two factors: (i) their high Tier 1 capital
ratios and (ii) lower concentrations of loans and deposits to the
more volatile economic conditions prevailing in the Emirate of
Dubai," explains John Tofarides, lead analyst at Moody's for the
UAE banks.

More details of the stress-testing exercise -- including Moody's
assumptions for estimated losses for each asset class -- will be
presented in a Special Comment to be published shortly.

For all the banks, the review is expected to be completed in the
next few months.  Based on its stress-test results, Moody's does
not, at this stage, anticipate that a multi-notch downgrade will
be warranted for any of the rated entities.

Moody's notes that the rating actions reflect a forward-looking
approach based on anticipated loss estimates and that it will
continue to monitor the ratings, in particular for any significant
changes from the currently anticipated scenarios over the next 12
to 18 months.

These ratings were placed on review for possible downgrade:

Emirates Bank International PJSC:

  -- C- BFSR (which maps to a Baseline Credit Assessment of Baa2)

  -- A1 long-term local and foreign currency deposit ratings

  -- A1 senior debt ratings

                         *********

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-AP delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-AP editors from a variety of outside
sources during the prior week we think are reliable.   Those
sources may not, however, be complete or accurate.  The Tuesday
Bond Pricing table is compiled on the Friday prior to
publication.  Prices reported are not intended to reflect actual
trades.  Prices for actual trades are probably different.  Our
objective is to share information, not make markets in publicly
traded securities.  Nothing in the TCR-AP constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind.  It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-AP editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR-AP. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com

Friday's edition of the TCR-AP features a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on the
latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication.  At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.
