Satyam diluting stake in Sify

18-03-2000 17:30:38

Satyam Computer Services Ltd., which holds a majority stake in Satyam Infoway Ltd (Sify), is planning to sell around 2.5-3% of its stake in Sify through a domestic placement to domestic and foreign institutional investors.

Currently, Satyam has a 57% stake in Sify. Present Government regulations do not permit it to lower its stake in Sify below 51% which leaves it a small window of 6%, which it can sell to raise money. It is believed that Satyam would ideally like to place the stake at a price equivalent to the ADS price on the Nasdaq. Potential investors have also been assured that Sify will have a domestic listing within the next few months.

The total funds raised from this placement would be in the region of $150-175mn and would be used primarily to pay off Satyam's debts.
