Sun to offer premium price for Taro's shares
By ENS Economic Bureau
Sun Pharma (
SUNPHARMA.NS :
1402.9 +18.15
) has proposed to offer a premium price over the current market rates for the shares of Israel-based Taro Pharmaceutical and resolve the issue with Taro, as recommended by the Israeli Supreme Court. We are open to discussing both the proposals - to offer an excellent solution to this dispute and offer a significant premium to the public shareholders over the current market prices, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd Chairman Dilip Shanghvi said in a letter to the Taro Board of Directors. In a filing to the BSE (
