Evergrande and China's housing authority did not immediately respond to requests for comment during the week long National Day holiday. EVERGRANDE RESTRUCTURING Even before the probe into Hui was made public, Evergrande's debt restructuring plan was clouded by its disclosure that it was unable to issue new debt due to an investigation into its main China unit. Late last month, it also said it would have to reassess the terms of the proposed restructuring as home sales were not meeting expectations. "For all of the restructuring ... issuance of new notes to an extension is a core part, so I don't know how you can get it done without that," said Sandra Chow, co-head of Asia-Pacific research at CreditSights. Gavekal in its report said that at the very least, an orderly restructuring of Evergrande seemed increasingly hard to achieve. A liquidation petition filed against Evergrande is scheduled for hearing in a Hong Kong court on Oct 30.
