Obviously not party to ongoing negotiations
But to get this deal done,.my understanding of the framework has to be something along the lines of
New holdings company to be registered in India.(so they can tax locally) I believe this is a crucial part of any deal.
Ownership of licence to be freely transferred into the new co.
Pat will own 100% from the outset, but likely have to conceded a percentage of the newly established holding company to the state to get them on board as a joint venture and.so that the state can share in future profits.
Plan will be float bhukia (possibly on domestic exchange) and raise all the development capital through to mine build out.
All jobs ro be created from domestic labour force
Could provide employment for 1000+ skilled workers.
New company would become the Indian equivalent of a Centamin (CEY)
Pats ownership would be worth many hundred millions.
Just need the update to confirm agreement is reached and then it will be game on
MB has pulled off a deal like this previously to resolve a similar dispute
Let's see if he can repeat previous success
