新加坡电信有限公司，俗称新加坡电信已经开始与Bharti Airtel主席苏尼尔•米塔尔知情人士表示，该公司将向米塔尔家族出售其在这家印度电信公司所持股份的一小部分。
新加坡电信和米塔尔家族是该公司的股东巴帝电信的推广公司Bharti Airtel．此外，两人都直接持有Bharti的股份附近的旅馆．尽管交易的具体金额和细节尚未确定，但知情人士表示，新加坡电信可能通过Bharti Telecom和Bharti的合并，向印度电信出售价值20亿至20亿美元的股份附近的旅馆分享销售。
截至周三，巴蒂电信的市值为3.78万亿卢比。出售价值10亿美元的Bharti Airtel股票将使新加坡电信的持股减少近2%至不到30%，而出售价值20亿美元的股票将使新加坡电信的持股减少4%。
上述知情人士表示，作为投资组合管理战略的一部分，新加坡电信希望通过出售Bharti股票来获取一些利润，并将部分资本重新配置到新的投资机会中。的Airtel股票虽然从去年11月24日781.80卢比的高点回落，但在过去一年里升值了33%。Bharti Airtel的股票周三收于688.35卢比，比前一天收盘上涨1.41%。
周三，向Bharti Airtel、Singtel和Mittal发送的电子邮件询问仍未得到回复。本周早些时候，新加坡电信在回答另一个问题时表示，Bharti Airtel仍是其国际投资组合中的核心投资。该公司被问及是否打算通过大宗交易出售其在印度电信公司所持的部分股份。
“几十年来，我们一直是Airtel的战略投资者，它仍然是我们国际投资组合的核心投资。我们还没有聘请银行来研究这一交易，我们也不会对任何市场猜测发表评论。我们遵守市场披露规则，报告所有重大交易，”新加坡电信发言人周一表示。
在上周的投资者电话会议上，Bharti Airtel首席执行官Gopal Vittal拒绝就一位分析师关于Airtel推广实体考虑出售股份的“新市场谣言”的问题发表评论。他表示:“这是股东的事情，最好直接告诉他们。”
新加坡电信将于周五公布季度业绩。
长期合作
新加坡电信自2000年以来一直是Bharti Airtel的股东。米塔尔家族和新加坡电信分别持有Bharti电信50.56%和49.44%的股份，而Bharti电信则持有Bharti Airtel 35.85%的股份。此外，新加坡电信和米塔尔家族通过投资公司直接持有该电信14%和6.04%的股份。米塔尔家族在Bharti Airtel的实际持股比例为24.13%，而Singtel的实际持股比例为31.72%。
皇冠上的宝石
今年2月，新加坡电信集团(Singtel Group)首席执行官关文元(Kuan Moon Yuen)称这家印度电信公司是该公司业务的一个亮点。
然而，知情人士表示，作为“战略重置”的一部分，新加坡电信正在加紧对东南亚地区数字服务公司(金融服务、流媒体和游戏)的投资计划，因为在新冠肺炎大流行拖累其传统移动运营商业务后，该公司试图抓住该地区的机遇。
它已经开始投资新时代的公司，在与新加坡Grab的数字银行合资企业中挑选了40%的股份，后者已经获得了在新加坡运营的许可证。该公司宣布的其他重点领域包括5G电信以及为政府和企业提供的b2b服务。
去年10月，Airtel筹集了约5247亿卢比，这是其2100亿卢比配股发行的第一部分。一旦电信公司决定追加两个电话，剩余的1575.3亿卢比将被筹集。分析人士估计，Airtel的配股发行需要其发起人，米塔尔家族的Singtel和Bharti企业，分别贡献约666.1亿卢比和506.7亿卢比。
2019年，新加坡电信购买了价值5.25亿美元的Airtel股票，当时Airtel正处于筹集资金的狂潮中，以提高其资产负债表，因为需要支付法定款项并投资于其网络，以更好地对抗有钱的竞争对手依赖Jio．
通过筹集资金和资产货币化，Airtel已经在改善其资产负债表方面迈出了大步。它已将净债务与EBITDA之比从19财年4.5倍的峰值降至22财年的3.0倍，”摩根士丹利分析师Gaurav Rateria表示。“与上一个周期不同，当竞争和新的资本支出周期同时出现时，这一次Airtel处于有利地位，能够吸收与5G相关的增量投资，而不会影响其资产负债表实力。”

Singapore Telecommunications Limited, commonly known as Singtel<\/a>, has initiated talks with Bharti Airtel<\/a> chairman Sunil Mittal<\/a> to sell a small part of its holding in the Indian telco to the Mittal family, said people familiar with the matter.
Singtel and the Mittal family are shareholders in Bharti Telecom<\/a>, a promoter company of Bharti Airtel<\/a>. In addition, both own shares directly in Bharti Airtel<\/a>. While the exact quantum and details of the transaction have not yet been worked out, people in the know said the Singapore company could sell stake worth $1-2 billion to the Indian promoter through a mix of Bharti Telecom and Bharti Airtel<\/a> share sales.
As on Wednesday, the market capitalisation of Bharti Airtel is Rs 3.78 lakh crore. Selling Bharti Airtel shares worth $1 billion would reduce Singtel's holding by close to 2% to less than 30% while divesting shares worth $2 billion would reduce Singtel\u2019s holding by 4%.

<\/div><\/div>These people said Singtel as part of its portfolio management strategy was keen to book some profit by selling Bharti shares and redeploy some of the capital in new investment opportunities. The Airtel stock<\/a> has appreciated 33% in the last one year although it is down from its high of Rs 781.80 last November 24. Bharti Airtel\u2019s stock ended Wednesday at Rs 688.35, up 1.41% from the previous day\u2019s closing.
Emailed queries sent to Bharti Airtel, Singtel, and Mittal on Wednesday remained unanswered till press time. Singtel, in response to a separate query on whether it was looking to sell a part of its holding in the Indian telco through a block deal had earlier this week said Bharti Airtel remained a core investment in its international portfolio.
\"We've been strategic investors in Airtel for decades and it remains a core investment in our international portfolio. We have not hired a bank to explore such a sale and we will not comment on any market speculation. We abide by market disclosure rules to report all material transactions,\" said a Singtel spokesperson on Monday.
At an investor call last week, Bharti Airtel CEO Gopal Vittal had declined to comment on a question from an analyst on \"fresh market rumours\" around an Airtel promoter entity mulling a stake sale. \"This was a shareholder matter that is best directed to them,\" he said.

JEWEL IN THE CROWN<\/strong>
In February this year, Singtel Group chief executive Kuan Moon Yuen described the Indian telco as a bright spot in his company\u2019s business.
However, as part of a \u2018strategic reset\u2019, people aware of the situation said Singtel is stepping up its investment plans in digital service companies \u2014 financial services, streaming and gaming \u2014 across Southeast Asia, as it attempts to seize opportunities in the region after the Covid-19 pandemic weighed on its traditional mobile carrier business.
It has already begun investing in new-age companies, cherry-picking a 40% stake in a digital banking joint venture with Singapore\u2019s Grab, which has received a licence to operate in Singapore. Other focus areas announced by the company include 5G telecommunications and business-to-business services for governments and enterprises.
Last October, Airtel had raised around Rs 5,247 crore as the first tranche of its Rs 21,000 crore rights issue. The balance Rs 15,753 crore will be garnered once the telco decides to make the two additional calls. Analysts estimate that Airtel\u2019s rights issue requires its promoters, Singtel and Bharti Enterprises of the Mittal family, to contribute around Rs 6,661 crore and Rs 5,067 crore, respectively.
In 2019, Singtel bought $525 million worth of shares in Airtel, which was in the midst of a fund-raising spree to boost its balance sheet amidst the need to make statutory payments and invest in its network to better take on moneyed rival Reliance Jio<\/a>.
Airtel has taken strides to improve its balance sheet by raising capital and monetizing assets. It has reduced its net debt to EBITDA ratio from a peak of 4.5x in F19 to 3.0x in F22,\u201d said Morgan Stanley analyst Gaurav Rateria. \u201cUnlike in the previous cycle, when competition and a new capex cycle coincided, this time Airtel is well positioned to absorb the incremental investments related to 5G without compromising its balance sheet strength.\u201d

JEWEL IN THE CROWN<\/strong>
In February this year, Singtel Group chief executive Kuan Moon Yuen described the Indian telco as a bright spot in his company\u2019s business.
However, as part of a \u2018strategic reset\u2019, people aware of the situation said Singtel is stepping up its investment plans in digital service companies \u2014 financial services, streaming and gaming \u2014 across Southeast Asia, as it attempts to seize opportunities in the region after the Covid-19 pandemic weighed on its traditional mobile carrier business.
It has already begun investing in new-age companies, cherry-picking a 40% stake in a digital banking joint venture with Singapore\u2019s Grab, which has received a licence to operate in Singapore. Other focus areas announced by the company include 5G telecommunications and business-to-business services for governments and enterprises.
Last October, Airtel had raised around Rs 5,247 crore as the first tranche of its Rs 21,000 crore rights issue. The balance Rs 15,753 crore will be garnered once the telco decides to make the two additional calls. Analysts estimate that Airtel\u2019s rights issue requires its promoters, Singtel and Bharti Enterprises of the Mittal family, to contribute around Rs 6,661 crore and Rs 5,067 crore, respectively.
In 2019, Singtel bought $525 million worth of shares in Airtel, which was in the midst of a fund-raising spree to boost its balance sheet amidst the need to make statutory payments and invest in its network to better take on moneyed rival Reliance Jio<\/a>.
Airtel has taken strides to improve its balance sheet by raising capital and monetizing assets. It has reduced its net debt to EBITDA ratio from a peak of 4.5x in F19 to 3.0x in F22,\u201d said Morgan Stanley analyst Gaurav Rateria. \u201cUnlike in the previous cycle, when competition and a new capex cycle coincided, this time Airtel is well positioned to absorb the incremental investments related to 5G without compromising its balance sheet strength.\u201d
