FIPB gives green signal to Ranbaxy-Daiichi deal

The Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) cleared the proposal of acquisition of Ranbaxy by Japan’s Daiichi Sankyo and the deal would now have to be cleared by the Finance Minister and the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs. The deal was earlier cleared by the FIPB, but the amount of FDI was miscalucated at Rs 108 crore. Now, they have recalculated the amount and found it to be Rs 21,560 crore. Earlier, Industry Ministry had said it does not see any problem in clearing the foreign direct investment rules for the Daiichi-Ranbaxy deal, wherein the Japanese drug maker would acquire majority stake in the Indian pharma major.
