Reliance Communications has revived plans of listing its tower subsidiary Reliance Infratel a year after the proposal was put on hold following the global slowdown. RCom intends offering 10 per cent of Reliance Infratel’s equity to investors, the Chairman, Mr Anil Ambani, told shareholders at the fifth annual general meeting.
The latter, in turn, would shortly file the Draft Red Herring Prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The share sale is expected to fund the expansion of the company’s network of 48,000 towers as the demand for passive telecom infrastructure is likely to more than double in the next couple of years.
It may be recalled that Reliance Infratel filed a regulatory application for an IPO of 10.05 per cent last February. In 2007, Reliance Infratel raised Rs 1,400 crore by selling a 5 per cent stake to seven investors — George Soros, HSBC, Fortress Capital, New Silk, Galleon, DA Capital and GLG Capital — in a deal valuing the firm at Rs 28,000 crore then.crackcrack
