United Spirits to Sell RCB Franchise for INR 166.6 Billion to Consortium
United Spirits Limited (USL) has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its 100% stake in Royal Challengers Sports Private Limited (RCSPL), which operates the RCB IPL and WPL franchises. The transaction is valued at a significant INR 166.6 billion in an all-cash deal to a consortium including Aditya Birla Group, Blackstone, and Times Internet.

The deal is expected to close within six months, subject to approvals from the CCI and BCCI.
