Reliance Retail intends to enforce Future group deal soon

The Singapore arbitration panel on its hearing on October 26 has put on hold to the Future Group`s $3.38 billion asset sale to Reliance Industries. This is considered as an interim win for Amazon.com Inc. Amazon received this emergency order to halt the companies from proceeding with the deal until an arbitration tribunal is formed. Amazon who owns 7.3% stake in Future have not issued the letter of approval to the deal. Few sources said, Amazon has gained a comprehensive victory. However, the temporary halt is not enforceable in India as it has to be ratified by an Indian court.
