The acquisition of Zain assets will give the Indian mobile market leader a footprint in 15 African countries.

Kalanithi`s Rs 7 bn offer not too hot for SpiceJet owners Kalanithi Maran, media baron and promoter of Sun TV, and the promoters of SpiceJet are sparring over the price being offered for a majority stake in the budget carrier, with Maran`s proposal of Rs 7 billion for a 51% stake finding few takers among the airline`s shareholders. Maran, whose interests have now spread from media to aviation, has completed due diligence and is believed to have made an offer of Rs 7 billion, or Rs 55 per share. This is not acceptable to the SpiceJet shareholders, as the offer is at a discount to the ruling market price of the stock.
HUL sets sights on doubling business Hindustan Unilever (HUL) will look beyond its current bruising battles for market share and focus on doubling the business, the chairman of its parent said on Monday. Unilever Plc chief executive officer Paul Polman also had some barbed comments to make about ``an American competitor`` that has ``lowered product quality`` to grab consumers. HUL is currently in the middle of a protracted battle with arch global rival Procter and Gamble Co. (P&G) that has ended up in the courts. The two consumer companies have cut prices in a bid to win customers, a move that analysts believe will inevitably squeeze their profit margins.
Shinde nixes NTPC plan for interim deal Power minister Sushil Kumar Shinde has signaled a split in the power ministry`s efforts to secure interim gas supplies for NTPC from Reliance Industries (RIL) at USD 2.34 per million British thermal unit (mmBtu) pending a judgment in the ongoing legal dispute between the two companies in the Bombay high court over a gas supply contract. If the minister`s view prevails, then state-owned NTPC, which is controlled by the power ministry, will have to further delay its plans to expand power generation capacity by 2,600MW at its plants at Kawas and Gandhar.
Bharati`s new bid to gain control of Great Offshore Mumbai-based offshore oilfield services firm Great Offshore is seeking approval from shareholders to appoint two nominees of Bharati Shipyard as executive directors to allow Bharati to control Great Offshore`s day-to-day management. Bharati, India`s second largest shipbuilder outside state control has a 48.89% stake in Great Offshore, which is not sufficient to grant Bharati management control over the firm. That`s because it made its open offer to acquire shares saying it was doing so as a strategic investor and not as an entity wishing to take control of the firm. Stock market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) said Bharati would have to make a second open offer for a 51% stake under the takeover law to gain management control.
