Karachi: Amtex Limited has announced its decision to dispose of its land and building located in Faisalabad as part of an ongoing debt repayment negotiation with its lender banks. The move is aimed at reducing the company's financial liabilities through the adjustment of the entire sale proceeds against its outstanding loans, as communicated to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX).
