Changi airport out of race for stake in GVK
August 21, 2014
Singapore's Changi Airports International is now out of the race to pick up stake in GVK's airports business due to regulatory issues, a senior GVK official said. 

GVK Group CFO Issac George said the stake sale could not proceed as planned due to a lower valuation and currently due diligence is undertaken by one of the investors. 

"Changi went back because of India story being bad like Vodafone retrospective tax and General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAAR) introduction. Otherwise, a terms sheet was also signed with them," George said on the sidelines of the recently held company's Annual General Meeting in Hyderabad.
