New Delhi, March 12: Three leading corporate houses—L&T, BK Modi-promoted Spice Corp and Tech Mahindra—have submitted their expressions of interest (EoIs)to acquire majority stake in the scam-hit Satyam Computer.
The government-appointed board of the beleaguered IT company is meeting in Hyderabad tomorrow to scrutinize the EoIs. Business conglomerate Hinduja Group has pulled out of the competition.
Satyam closed registrations for potential bidders today as it began a process to sell 51 per cent stake in the company which is caught in the country’s biggest corporate scandal.
The EoIs from prospective bidders, however, failed to lift the sentiments at the Satyam counter on bourses. The scrip on BSE closed the day down 3.18 per cent at Rs 47.20.
Engineering giant L&T, the single largest shareholder in Satyam at 12 per cent, said it has registered in the bidding process. Company spokesperson D Morada told PTI that “L&T has put in the EoI today”. (PTI)
