Indian cement maker, UltraTech, has stepped up efforts to prevent rival Dalmia Bharat’s from acquiring Binani Cement. The Aditya Birla subsidiary has made last-ditch bid, aiming to disrupt an offer from Dalmia Bharat, which had received approval from Binani’s creditors.
UltraTech’s latest bid of INR72.66 billion for a 98.43% stake in Binani Cement outbids Dalmia Cement’s bid of INR63 billion.
