Bain, GIC to acquire part of honda stake in Hero JV

01 Feb 2011 Evaluate

Private equity firm Bain Capital LLC and Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC), a sovereign fund owned by the government, are close to picking up part of Honda's 26 per cent equity stake in the world's largest two-wheeler manufacturer Hero Honda.

The two funds have left behind many other contenders, which had shown interest in the deal, including PE funds like KKR, Carlyle, Warburg Pincus and TPG, among others. The deal is being negotiated at a price of around Rs 1,500 to Rs 1,600 a share.

Terminating the 26-year old joint venture with Honda Motor Corporation, the Munjals' promoted Hero Group had, in December last year, announced it would buy Honda's 26 per cent stake in Hero Honda for an undisclosed amount. The Munjals also own 26 per cent share in the company. Hero needed to raise the funds for buying Honda's 26 per cent. The BAIN/GIC deal is part of the latter arrangement and the Hero Group may, at a later stage, look to buy the stake back from BAIN/GIC.
