The transaction is expected to conclude in about six months, subject to extension by mutual consent.

The move comes as GOCL nears completion of monetising its land at Kukatpally, Hyderabad, and divesting its major subsidiary. With surplus liquidity and a strong asset base, the company plans to deploy resources into its next phase of transformation by entering the energy sector.
