THE ECONOMIC TIMES
About this episode

The demerger of ITC’s Hotel business spoiled the party of the ITC stock rally which has taken the stock up 70% in the past one year. So, what was it about the demerger that irked the investors? Is it simply a buy on buzz and sell on rally or are shareholders feeling short-changed with the scheme? Why is ITC still holding 40% in the demerged entity?

In this episode of The Morning Brief podcast, host Kiran Somvanshi delves into the ITC demerger seeking answers from:

 1) Dipak Haksar the former CEO of ITC Hotels
 

2) Manu Rishi Guptha, CEO and Founder - MRG Capital - SEBI Registered PMS who has made headlines with his critique of the 'cigarette king'.
