Mumbai: ICICI Bank is selling its 7 per cent stake
in the National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX),
for Rs507 per share for a total of Rs106.4 crore to Goldman
Sachs (Mauritius).
With
this sell-off, ICICI Bank's stake in the exchange will
come down to 8 per cent, thus leaving Life Insurance Corporation
of India, National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
and National Stock Exchange of India as the largest stakeholders
with 15 per cent each. NCDEX's total equity is valued
at Rs1,520 crore.
Recently Financial Technologies India had sold its 9 per

The
deal fetched Rs220 crore ($49 million) to the exchange.
FTIL still holds a majority stake in MCX.
