Haldirams to sell 10% stake to Temasek in deal valuing firm at $10 bn
Haldiram Snacks Food (Haldirams), the Indian multinational snacks and sweets company, has entered into an agreement with Singapore-headquartered global investment firm Temasek to sell an equity stake held by existing shareholders, PwC said in a press release.

While the release did not state the exact stake sold, sources earlier told Business Standard that Haldiram has signed an agreement to sell a little under 10 per cent valuing the company at $10 billion. 

According to sources, the company will use the funds for expansion, and the promoters may not retain any of the proceeds.

 Haldirams is also in advanced-stage talks to sell another 5–6 per cent stake for around $500 million.

PwC’s investment banking team acted as the exclusive financial advisor to the transaction, while Khaitan & Co served as the legal advisor. The deal is expected to close shortly after receiving the required regulatory approvals.
