The board of ICL, which met on Tuesday, decided to sell its investments in several subsidiaries and other outfits. Just consider these:

* The board has decided to sell its entire equity investment in Coromandel Travels Limited (CTL), a subsidiary of the company. Upon completion of the said sale, CTL would cease to be a subsidiary.  “The company shall enter into an agreement with Chennai-based Venbro Investments and Financial Services Private Limited, the proposed buyer, upon finalisation of terms,” the company said in a stock exchange filing.  It is proposed to sell CTL at a consideration of Rs.3.98 lakhs.

ICL Financial Services Limited (ICLFSL) and ICL Securities Limited (ICLSL), wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company, have approved sale of their entire equity investment in Raasi Cement Limited, an associate of the company. Upon completion of the said sale, Raasi Cement Limited will cease to be an associate of the company. It is proposed to sell at a consideration of Rs. 10,000. Raasi Cement is also being sold to Venbro Investments and Financial Services Private Limited.
