India rejects Etisalat share transfer plan

India has rejected a proposal to transfer shares from resident to non-resident in the India telecoms venture of UAE's Etisalat, a finance ministry statement said on Thursday, without citing a reason.

But Shahid Balwa, the vice chairman of the Indian unit, Etisalat DB Telecom Pvt Ltd, told Reuters the application was rejected due to "technical reasons" and the firm would re-apply with required documents.

"We are now submitting a fresh application, say within seven days," Balwa said.
