The Great Eastern Shipping Company Ltd, India’s biggest ship owner by fleet size, seems to have keen interest to curb SCI and is said to have filed an expression of interest (EoI) to buy state-owned and run SCI.
US-based Safesea Group, helmed by Indian origin shipping professional SV Anchan, is also expected to file the EoI “any time” before the March 1 deadline set by the Department of Investment and Public Asset Management. However, Anchan, President, Safesea Group, confirmed the company’s interest in SCI. The other potential suitors include Fairfax, Vedanta, and the Adani Group.
