Yes I agree.
I suspect it isn’t directly in their wheelhouse to manage BIAL.

They are a massive conglomerate that likely were interested in BIAL for the infrastructure play. From the 2012 annual report  :”As planned, we’re scaling back our own financial commitment in view of the airport’s successful business development. In fiscal 2012, we announced the sale of a 14% stake in BIAL to G.V. Sanjay Reddy’s GVK Power&Infrastructure Limited. However, we continue to hold a substantial 26% stake in the airport operator.”

 

Either way-great for us to take over majority ownership.
