NEWS UPDATES
Sterlite to take up Rs 2,500-cr expansion plan in Tamil Nadu The $15 billion Vedanta Group's natural
resources company set to take a Rs 2500 crore expansion, including to double the copper manufacturing capacity
and set up 2x80 Mw power projects, at its copper smelter plant at Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu. The plant, located on the
Southern tip of the State, earlier faced legal battles over alleged environment issues. Post the proposed expansion,
this plant will be Asia's largest copper manufacturing facility in a single location. The company hopes that in the
next six months all the formalities and legal issues will be sorted out and post which the expansion will be taken
up.
Power producer NTPC appears determined not to clear dues of about Rs 2,000 crore to the monopoly miner Coal
India (CIL) without third-party sampling of coal, indicating a protracted tussle ahead over the quality of coal that
had led to a stand-off between the two state-owned firms for much of last year. Coal produced from almost all the
mines of Eastern Coalfields is sampled by an independent party before it is dispatched to NTPC's thermal power
plants, NTPC recently paid CIL 1,000 crore, following a decision taken at a meeting held in the finance ministry
after its dues touched 3,000 crore.
The decision to buy stake in Indian Oil Corp will leave ONGC with only Rs 2500 crore in its cash reserve, The
company had a cash balance of over Rs 13,200 crore at the beginning of the year, He does not think buying stake
in IOC at this point is a bad idea. Following a weak response to the proposed divestment in IOC, and also
opposition from the OIL ministry on selling stake at depressed valuations, the government has decided to ask
state-owned companies ONGC and Oil India to pick up stake in IOC. This is being done so as to enable the
government to raise cash to bridge the fiscal deficit and meet the 4.8% target for the year.
Aurobindo Pharma The generic drug maker has signed a binding offer agreement to acquire commercial
operations of Dublin-based Actavis in seven Western European countries. Closing of the transaction is conditional
on certain anti-trust approvals and completion of employee consultation processes, without disclosing the
financial details of the deal. It expects to acquire personnel, commercial infrastructure, products, marketing
authorisations and dossier licence rights in seven European countries.
Biocon introduced 'CANMAb' (150 milligram (mg)/ 440 mg), a biosimilar trastuzumab for the treatment of HER2positive metastatic breast cancer in India. CANMAb, developed jointly by Biocon and Mylan under a global
partnership, is the world's first biosimilar version of Herceptin and is being introduced for the benefit of patients
in India. CANMAb's 150 milligram (mg) formulation, priced at Rs 19,500 per vial, will allow extra savings to
patients as they can buy smaller quantities as per their requirement.
Citing unfavourable market conditions, mid-size private lender DCB Bank has said it will seek more time from the
Reserve Bank to bring down the promoters' stake to under 10 per cent. The rest of stake in the lender (formerly
Development Credit Bank) is with public, institutions and foreign investors. Akfed is a global enterprise dedicated
to promoting entrepreneurship and building economically-sound companies.
