Vodafone Idea would certainly find it easier to raise funds through debt following this announcement from the government. There still remains to be seen what the government will do about the bank guarantees that need to be furnished by Vi as the telco wants to surrender some of the spectrum to reduce liabilities. The overall debt for Vi will go down signficantly post the conversion of dues into equity.

After the dues to equity conversion, Vi's promoters - Aditya Birla Group (ABG) and Vodafone Group PLC will continue to take the decisions for management. The government will be a sleeping entity in the company, and won't interfere with the decisions of the management.
