Anglo-Dutch consumer goods giant Unilever Plc will pay as much as $5.4 billion (Rs. 29,248.06 crore) to raise its stake in its Indian unit, Hindustan Unilever, to up to 75 per cent in a bet on fast-growing spending power in Asia's third-largest economy. According to Ramesh Damani, member of BSE and NSE, the open offer is a positive move for shareholders. However, Mr Damani told NDTV, he would not prefer to tender his shares in the offer.
