Ireland-based building materials group CRH Plc has terminated the talk to buy Jaypee Cement's, a part of Jaiprakash Associates, Gujarat operations on valuations difference. The two companies were in discussion since the start of August, but negotiations came to an end on account of inability of both the parties to agree terms.
