The media reports had mentioned that Tata Group's consumer unit is in talks to buy at least 51 per cent of popular Indian snack food maker Haldiram's but is not comfortable with the $10 billion valuation sought.
Haldiram's, a household name in India, is also talking with private equity firms including Bain Capital about the sale of a 10 per cent stake, the reports had said.
Tata Consumer Products, which owns the UK tea company Tetley and has a partnership with Starbucks in India, is negotiating the stake purchase, the reports said.
