Samsung Life, BNP, Norwest, Prudential eye IndiaFirst Life Insurance stake
Several big companies like Samsung Life, BNP, Norwest, and Prudential Plc are interested in buying a part of IndiaFirst Life Insurance.
Warburg, who owns a part of the company, might not sell all of it if they don't get the price they want.
This sale is just to help figure out how much the company is worth, and it won't bring in new money because the company doesn't need it right now.
