The stock of Tata Consumer Products fell nearly 3 per cent on Thursday after the company Wednesday said there were no negotiations going on acquiring a 51 per cent stake in Haldiram’s.
Tata Group’s FMCG arm was in talks with Haldiram’s to buy at least a majority stake, but was not comfortable with the $10 billion valuation sought by the leading snacks maker and restaurant operator, multiple media reports stated.
In the intraday session, Tata Consumer’s share price fell 2.9 per cent to touch a low of Rs 853.85 on BSE. At the time of writing, Tata Consumer was trading 2.66 per cent lower at 856.50.
