Dabur, Jubilant owners bid for stake in Coca-Cola's India bottling arm HCCB

Parent Coca-Cola Co will decide if the deal will involve one or two co-investors, or if negotiations lead to creation of an investor consortium. A decision is likely by the end of this fiscal year. ET was first to report on June 18 that Coca-Cola had sounded out a group of Indian business houses and family offices of billionaire promoters to buy into HCCB, an arm it eventually wants to take public to cash in on the bullish domestic capital markets.
