Essar Group to de-list Essar Steel and Essar Oil

The Essar Group plans to de-list Essar Steel and Essar Oil following a similar move by the group on Essar Shipping last month. The proposed de-listing is aimed at gaining more flexibility in running the companies. The group has already de-listed its BPO subsidiary Aegis Communications and telecom arm Essar Teleholdings from the US and domestic bourses. The Essar Group is in the midst of organizational restructuring and might list its holding firm Essar Global with an overseas bourse, though not as of now. Six holding companies for six businesses, namely, power, steel, energy, shipping, communications and special economic zones, have been set up to handle the group’s interests across the globe.
