EDF denies eyeing Gujarat Gas stake

Published Updated

"EDF denies having submitted an offer for BG's stake in Gujarat Gas and has no plans to do so," a spokeswoman said.

BG received between six and seven bids earlier this week, including from India's Adani group, state-run GAIL India and state-run Gujarat State Petroleum Corp, sources told Reuters on Monday.

BG India, a unit of the British oil and gas company, announced in November it was interested in selling its stake in Gujarat Gas, a western India-focused gas distribution company, as part of a restructuring of its asset portfolio.
