In November, the company had concluded the sale of its stake in IEX.
The Jignesh Shah-led Financial Technologies (India) Ltd had nearly 26 per cent stake in the largest power trading exchange, IEX, but started divesting in the bourse following an order by power regulator CERC to sell out completely.
The move followed the erstwhile regulator FMC declaring FTIL and the promoter unfit to run exchange business following the payment crisis at its subsidiary, NSEL.
Similarly, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) had said FTIL is 'not fit and proper' to own stakes in any stock exchange and directed it to divest existing holdings in MCX-SX and four other entities.
