Pantaloon Retail), has announced that it has sold 22.5 % stake in life
insurance joint venture Future Generali India Life Insurance to Mumbai-based
Industrial Investment Trust Ltd (IITL), a non-deposit taking, non-banking
finance company in the insurance broking business. The company said it has got
the necessary regulatory nod from the Insurance Regulatory and Development
Authority (IRDA), the Competition Commission of India (CCI) and the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) for the deal.
According to the sources close to the development, the deal value is at around Rs 1,500 crore. And, Systematix Capital is the sole advisor to the deal.
The share purchase agreement (SPA) was announced on March 8, 2013. In a filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the company said it has received all necessary approvals from the regulatory and the governmental authorities.
Post completion of the deal, Future Group will hold 52% stake in Future Generali India, while the foreign partner, Participatie Maatschappij Graafschap Holland NV, a subsidiary of Assicurazioni Generali S.P.A., will continue to hold 25.5% stake in the insurance joint venture.
