dollar bonds rallied on Friday as billionaire was said to be in talks with creditors to prepay some loans in a bid to restore confidence in his business empire.

The notes also pared losses from earlier in the week as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. told some clients that Adani bonds can offer value due to the strength of certain assets. Adani debt has hit a floor in the short term, Goldman Sachs trading executives said in a call Thursday, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

Adani Green Energy Ltd.’s dollar bond maturing in Sept. 2024 rose 6.8 cents on the dollar to 70.4 cents, on course for its biggest daily increase on record, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.

Even so, some on the conglomerate’s dollar debt is trading at below 70 cents, a level which is typically considered distressed.
