    CCI approves Reliance's acquisition of MTS
  • Reliance Communications said the CCI has given approval to its deal to acquire Sistema Shyam Teleservices Ltd that operates under the MTS brand.

    SSTL will hold about 10 per cent stake in RCom and pay off its existing debt before closing the deal.

    The deal will consolidate Reliance's market position ahead of Mukesh Ambani's foray into the sector with 4G services under Reliance Jio.
