Indian billionaire Sunil Mittal and US-based private equity major Warburg Pincus have submitted a bid to acquire a 49 per cent stake in Haier India, a Business Standard report said. The two made the bid at a sharply reduced valuation of Rs 6,000 crore (USD 720 million). Haier is a Chinese electronics maker which had initially sought a USD 2 billion valuation for the stake but received lower bids, the report said. Haier is now weighing whether to proceed with the deal or wait for improved market conditions.

Haier India operates three manufacturing facilities in the country, producing air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and other appliances. The group previously held early-stage talks with Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries, reports suggest.
