Vodafone Group PLC said on Thursday it sold its stake in telecom infrastructure firm Bharti Infotel to its holding company Bharti Enterprises for $200 million.
The stake represents about a 4.2 percent interest in the Indian mobile carrier Bharti Airtel, which is also a subsidiary of Bharti Enterprises.
The sale results from a directive by India`s Department of Telecoms, which restricts any group from holding an interest in more than one licensee company in the same service area.
