NOVARTIS CALLS OFF TALKS FOR STAKE IN ASTRA-IDL
Article Abstract:
Novartis India has decided not to go ahead with its plans to acquire the 25.75 percent stake in Astra-IDL, which was formerly held by Astra AB of Sweden. Novartis has backed out of the deal as it felt that Astra AB is likely to take back its brands from Astra-IDL in 2004. The Hindujas, promoters of Astra-IDL, have been asking for a price of Rs400 per share but most potential buyers are not offering above Rs300 per share. (khr)
