The biggest shareholder in India's IndiGo airline will sell a 2% stake, worth 32.93 billion rupees ($394 million), in the low-cost carrier's parent on Tuesday, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters.
Interglobe Enterprises, which has a 37.75% stake in Interglobe Aviation, the operator of IndiGo, will sell the shares at a base price of 4,266 rupees each, the term sheet showed.
