Cairn merger with Vedanta

There are reports of Cairn India merging with Vedanta.
Stock of Cairn India fell by close to 4%. It was quoting at 173.

Vedanta has a debt of 75K crore (approx)

The merger gives Vedanta access to Cairn India's cash which could be used to reduce their debt and hence the crash in market price of Cairn.
