The PE player holds 9.99% stake valued at Rs 2,687 crore.

US-based private equity (PE) player Providence Equity Partners is considering an exit from Idea Cellular, the flagship telecom company owned by the Aditya Birla Group. Providence holds 9.99 per cent in Idea Cellular. The stake is valued at Rs 2,687 crore at Friday’s closing price of the stock.

Providence had bought 15 per cent in Idea Cellular in 2006 for around Rs 1,800 crore through its investment arm — P5 Asia Investment (Mauritius). It diluted the remaining 5.01 per cent over the next 5 years. If Providence implements its plan, it will be one of the largest open market exits by any PE fund in India.
