Robi to go public after merger with Airtel

Telecoms operator Robi plans to float shares in the capital market as soon as it merges business with Airtel, Axiata Group Chief Financial Officer Chari TVT says.

Axiata Group, Robi’s Malaysia-based parent company, organised a three-day “Axiata Regional Media Summit 2016” with the participation of journalists from six countries.

The bdnews24.com asked the CFO when the company plans to go public.

"We hope the merger process will conclude by the year end and then we will go for the IPO (initial public offering)," said TVT.
