Idea Cellular is all set to make its debut on the bourses on March 9, thereby giving a significant boost to the market cap of the Aditya Birla group, reports our Bureau from Mumbai.
The listing of Idea Cellular would make it the seventh publicly-traded company for the $10-billion Birla conglomerate that has varied interests ranging from metals and cement to textiles and BPO. The market capitalisation of the group, currently at Rs 45,454 crore, could see a jump given that Idea’s 32.69 crore share IPO has targeted to raise about Rs 2,125 crore.
