The fast moving consumer goods major Hindustan Unilever on Monday said it exited from BPO firm Capgemini Business Services India by selling its remaining 49 per cent stake to IT consultancy firm Cap Gemini SA for an undisclosed sum.
Capgemini Business, formerly known as Unilever India Shared Services, was set up as an in-house business process outsourcing unit of the FMCG leader.
In September 2006, HUL sold 51 per cent stake in this firm to the France-based Cap Gemini SA, after which USSL was renamed as CGBSL. HUL had earlier said as a part of its normal business process it continuously review its assets, including real estate, and on a case-to-case basis to unlock business value.
