TOKYO (Reuters) - Toshiba Corp (6502.T) on Monday denied a newspaper report it was set to propose an equity tie-up with scandal-hit Olympus Corp (7733.T).

"There is no truth to this," a Toshiba spokesman told Reuters, after the Nikkan Kogyo said the company was expected to submit a business plan to Olympus's financial advisers.
