IL&FS to sell custody & depository unit
ISSL), on the block almost five years after IndusInd Bank pulled out of a deal to acquire the entity following the collapse of the infrastructure financier in September 2018. Unlike last time, however, bidders can either bid for the custody business or the depository (brokerage) business separately or both together, a document seeking expressions of interest (EOI) showed.
