The decision comes a fortnight after the company’s founder-chairman V.S. siddhartha was found dead on July 31 in a river near Mangaluru on the state’s west coast. “Parleys with Blackstone were underway by siddharth since January when he was looking at selling his or the holding company’s equity stake to raise funds for pairing high-cost debts,” a source told. The New York headquartered Blackstone specializes in private equity, credit and hedge fund investment strategies.



“The transaction is subject to completion of Blackstone’s due diligence, documentation and receipt of regulatory approvals in the next 30-45 days,” added the filing.
