Q: You have got the nod from Sebi for the real estate demerger, by when do you think it can be affected?
A: We got the demerger approvals from NSE and BSE sometime last week, just around our board meeting time. We expect another 5-6 months from now because we are going to file it with the High Court of Andhra Pradesh by the end of this month. So within another 6 months we should see the complete demerger, where this new company will also get listed on the stock exchange.
