MOSCOW, March 10 (Reuters) - Russian carmaker AvtoVAZ may place around 320 million euros ($434.2 million) of new shares as part of its restructuring plan, a source close to the company told Reuters on Wednesday.
The Lada-maker could count on 25 percent shareholder Renault to buy its allotted stake in the firm, the source added, while stressing the move was only under consideration.
