Last month, Reuters reported citing two sources that Evergrande Group is exploring repayments to its offshore creditors through cash instalments and equity in two of its Hong Kong-listed units.

The company owes around $19bn to its offshore public bondholders.

In March, the company had revealed that it would announce a preliminary debt restructuring proposal by the end of July.

It aims to sign agreements with the investors by December this year.
