In a BSE filing, the company said that it has entered into an agreement with Wall Street Investments Ltd to sell 55 per cent stake in Den Sports for ₹43.32 crore.

It said that this includes the sale of shares from Den Networks and preferential allotment by Den Sports.

The digital cable and broadband company was looking to divest stake in the football club business for some time, in a bid to focus on its core business.
